Prolapse vent? - I haven't had to treat it before so what do I do?

If the prolapsed vent or cloaca stays in, that is good. If it keeps coming back out or stays out, make sure to keep the red prolapse tissue moist with honey, sugar mixed with a few drops of water into a syrup, or an ointment such as vaseline, coconut oil, or hydrocortisone cream. Can you feel any bulge or egg with the prolapse? A prolapse can occur from straining to pass an egg or straining to poop. Here is a good article to read:

Thank for your reply. I feel a bulge. Her vent is quite enlarged but red blob is staying in for now and she has pooped. I have her seperated with vitamin water and shell grit mixed in grower feed. She is a bit overweight it seems compared to my others but she has bit disabled with a limp so doesn't go far, mostly stays in coop. She hasn't laid yet and is 8 months old.

She's panting sometimes it seems although she is eating and drinking and has shade and it's not hot weather here . Her vent seems to pulse constantly.
