Help! EE with bloody vent!

Went out to get my eggs a couple hours ago, and I found bloody faces on my 2 evil hens... Low and behold my beautiful EE hen laying on her side bleeding from her vent with her eyes closed and panting heavily:hita ran inside and cleaned her bum and applied no pick, then fed her scrambled eggs, chick starter, some mealworms and some wild bird seed, and gave her Nutri-drench... She is inside now and has a hearty appetite. The thing is she hasn't laid an egg for a couple days, and she is pooping fine, but her bum is very messy again... I really hope she isn't egg bound, and my evil buff hen Annabell didn't just take advantage of that, and I wasn't sure if they could still poop when egg bound? She has her tail pointed more down... But I am trying to figure out if that's because of the pain.... Or internal laying:duc:( help please! Even though I have helped many with issues like this one, I'm having trouble deciding, and would Love second opinions!

I can, but it may take a while... I have to upload photos by Bluetooth... How do you feel for an egg? Her vent is red... May be a little swollen... But idk if that was just because they were pecking it... I have vectrin... And Nutri-drench... And some other stuff... But no antibiotics:(
Once you soak her and wash the blood off, post some updated photos.
It looks like the blood is on the outside, it coagulates pretty thickly on wounds, so wipe it off so we can see. I don't see anything that says prolapse.
If she is able to poop, she does not have an egg stuck low enough right now to be toooo concerned with at the moment, but it would be a good idea to insert a finger inside about 1-2" to feel for an egg.

Update us once you have done these things.
