When it rains it pours! First a hen was attacked, now our Drake has a prolapse (what?). It doesn't seem like it's the penis, but I don't know what other parts there are in there. I can't lie... it's been a few weeks since I first noticed it. But today it's worse. I have an @$$**** partner that says, "They're NOT (our) PETS (yet we incubated them, house them, feed them...). Their purpose is to help maintain the pond" (which the city owns and doesn't take care of). He thinks nature should take it's course. FYI: West Nile Virus is in our area and the ducks do a great job of keeping the larvae down.
Is there anything I can do to help him without a vet bill? I've looked through discussions here and for YouTube videos, but have not found anything exactly like what his looks like. I'm afraid to touch it - not because I am afraid to - but for fear of causing him pain or doing more damage. I successfully nursed our hen back to health after an owl attack, so if this does NOT need surgical repair, I'm willing to give it a try. I've attached GRAPHIC photos below and THIS VIDEO LINK for observation and feedback. Near the end video, you'll see him pooping from around the prolapse. Hopefully the video link works ok... It's on Google.
