Help What is this? On chickens rear. It showed up two days after a fox attack.

With this humongous wound in her back is she gonna be able to get through this OK? I can tell she’s not feeling well but for that gaping hole in her back I’m surprised how well she was doing. I’m at work my daughter just called me and told me that she laid an egg with no shell. I’m trying to get her to send me a picture.
The last prolapse I dealt with didn’t look so terrible and red

Do you have photos of the wound on her back?

So she was able to pass egg, did it have a membrane at all?

I can't say whether she can get through it all ok or not. Chickens can survive quite a lot.
It is a prolapse. Likely what you dealt with was from egg laying and you saw the tissue of the oviduct, this is cloacal with some intestine, but it's treated the same.

Looks like a egg with just a very very thin shell. Which can happen for many small reasons or for no reason. So that doesn’t concern me as much. I’m having a really hard time getting a picture of the wound every time I take a picture it looks like there’s nothing there since she’s all black and they are still some bleeding with the wound. It’s reduced quite a bit but
and now my daughter just text messaged me to tell me she’s eating her egg

It’s just strange because she was fine after she laid an egg yesterday and when I left this morning and my daughter text me about 1 o’clock maybe 12 and send me that picture and she didn’t lay her eggs till 30 or 45 minutes ago. I’ll be home in about an hour and a half or two hours to get a look at it myself and see if I can get a better picture of her wound. That thing is hard to look at. But She’s eating and drinking and getting out and walking a little bit she can in the ICU kennel in the house. It’s WAY too humid and hot to have her outside when she’s not feeling well.

And thank you for that link. Once I’m off of work soon I’ll be able to look at it better but it looks more informative than the directions or information I have on it. And it’s been along time since I’ve dealt with it it

It's a prolapse with poop stuck in it.
You may need to help dig out the poop, see if that helps, then proceed how you did when you dealt with prolapse in the past.

This is the only picture I have of ihe wound right now. I’m gonna try to get a better one when I get home. But it’s weird she’s not missing any feathers around that wound. The only fed her she was missing afterwards for every single one of her tail down to the skin skin

Just got home and it’s huge. My goodness I’ve never seen this!

A warm soak in Epsom salts and water for about 15 minutes at least once daily, and try to get any poop out of the opening. Apply honey, sugar, or hydrocortisone cream to help reduce swelling. Is she able to poop? There could be another egg on it’s way through the tract. You might try giving her a human calcium tablet with vitamin D3 to help muscle contractions in the reproductive tract. Prolapses can recur.

She wasn’t able to poop. and boy is she trying. And I must’ve very carefully and meticulously scraped so much poop out there. I was amazed. She was looking exhausted and starting to make some noise so I gave her a small break and a start back at it. But yeah maybe soaking would help. Thank you. Sometimes when we are frantic we forget common sense things

If she had pooped I would put it back in. I’ve been keeping it moist but I don’t want to put it back inside of her father still poop backed up. I feel as though that will make it way worse..

Try the calcium, since she could have another egg on it’s way. Do you have a vet that you could see in the morning?
