I'm new to the board as I found you guys doing a google search for what could be wrong with my poor little Chick Pea and you seem like the folks to ask. I hope someone can help and if so I'll be grateful! Chick Pea's not quite 2 years old, is an Aracauna and she had a pasty rear end today and is making this squeaky not really a sneeze noise and as she does this her vent protrudes. I thought she may be egg bound but I don't see any swelling and I can't feel anything that feels like an egg but I brought her in and washed her rear in warm water and applied some Preparation H because the area seems to be a bit swollen. And like I said as she makes this noise it protrudes and then goes back in. It also kind of seems like she's wheezing a bit.. it's been really hot here lately (mid 90's) but my hens have plenty of shade and water so not sure if that has anything to do with it but thought I might mention it anyway.
Thanks in advance for your help!
