I have 6 Buff Orpingtons and when I got home today 4 out of the six had blood around their vents and were missing feathers. I immediately separated the two perpatrators and then checked each of the 4. 3 out of the 4 were bloody but should heal no problem. One hen is in pretty bad shape. I separated her by herself and have her plenty of food and water. She keeps arching her back to where her back is almost vertical instead of horizontal like she is trying to get something out. I felt her vent and didnt feel an egg. Not sure what to do. I think that I am going to give her over night to see how she does but not sure then when to put her down. I don't want her to suffer. Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Ben
