Have a Prolapsed Vent with possibly vent gleek or something? HELP!

[Wyorp Rock]

Meant to post about this but it's been a busy few days but I have amazing new!

My hen is healed up and laying eggs normal and being a chicken! Gonna try to re introduce her to the flock soon just been motoring her a bit to make sure everything stayed where it was supposed too.

But I wanted to say thank you so so much with put your help I would have been lost i really appreciate it for helping me through this process!

Wonderful!
I'm so glad that she's healed up and laying eggs. You did a great job taking care of her and didn't give up. I do hope she's retaining the tissue well and can go back with her flock soon. I'm sure this will be a relief for you both.

She has a prolapse.

Soaking may be helpful if it doesn't stress her.

Ours also has a prolapse, I have her in a kennel, in our spare bathroom. I'm going to try to soak her shortly to see how she reacts. If it does not stress her, should I try soaking 2-3 times a day? Epsom salt or plain water?

Very important is to get Calcium into her. Give 1 Calcium Citrate+D3 daily.

Will Tums work? It's extra strength (regular tums 500mg) 750mg Calcium Carbonate/ 300mg elemental Ca. I could only get about 1/6 tablet in her beak last night.
Do I need to get Vit D3 in her?

I just noticed for sure, yesterday, that it was a prolapsed vent. First thought it was possibly feces, from roosting on flat board ovn Sat night.

Do make sure she has access to Grit (Crushed Granite).

Should I offer grit, as she will not be free ranging?
Should I offer crushed egg shells until I obtain Oyster Shell? (I'm finding OS, with stuff added)

I have read this thread 3 times (and a few others) and it took @Copper9Miko1, 3 weeks for this to heal.

Might it be a good idea, to have the bathroom light on for only 12 hours a day, possibly slowing the egg laying? I know it won't have an effect right away. She usually lays 4 per week, a Buckeye, just 2 years old.

I will also up her protein.
Thank you for all the assistance you have given to others and now me.

I forgot to post pics, from yesterday afternoon and evening, when confined.

Update: I gave her a warm Epsom bath at noon, no noticeable stress. Of course I was talking to her, holding her gently and feeding her. I had the crusty part slathered with oil prior.

As the water, was too low (my mistake), I kept sloshing the warm water on her to clean and held a wet towel gently on the vent crusty. This lasted for 15+ minutes. I was able to get a little more Tums into her, probably 150mg. You can see how dirty the water is after the bath. Glad I could bathe her and get the feces/stuff off her.

I took her from the bath, wiped her down but did not totally dry her, so I put her on another clean towel. I did not want anything rough on that area. As I was applying more oil, lo and behold, the crusty fell off (pic, on blue towel) The last pic is out of focus (trying to take a pic with one hand) but her vent is clear. Some "stuff" around it.

She is eating and drinking, chatting and defecating. I forgot to check/feel for an egg just in case. Ugh, not thinking. I will keep her confined until she lays an egg to check the vent. We're not out of the woods yet, but better than yesterday.

Update, to me: She laid an egg this late afternoon. I'm thinking/guessing that was the reason she was so adamant on trying to get out of the kennel.
Recently returned home from the feed store and having dinner. I will check her vent within the next hour. This is really a good way for me to document...to myself. I'll let me know later how her vent looks after the egg.

Update: Though I did not take a picture, the vent looks great and normal and nothing distended after the egg (I will take a pic for my records tomorrow morning). Egg shell firm, no breaks nor cracks, nor thinness. She is definitely ready to get out by her attitude. Scratching, turning over food/water but I was able to get her out of the kennel, calmly and hold her as I checked her over. She was fine until she realized she was going back into the kennel. Anyway, if she is still doing well tomorrow, she will return to her flock, under my watchful eye. As she has only been away for just over 48 hours, I think all will be fine.
You know, posting to oneself, is a good way to document. A: for myself and B: in case other's have a similar issue, though the original post, with answers from wyorp, was foundational in getting myself and Myrtle through this.
