HELP

Recently I acquired 2 chickens. Yesterday I noticed that one of the chickens has a swollen vent (almost like hemorrhoid). What should I do? Thanks

I would post some pictures, just getting a visual can be really helpful (I think you might have to have 10 forum replies to post pics).

In the meantime, here are some questions for you: Is this chicken a hen? Is she laying? Is there a white discharge as well? Does she limp or stumble? Is her belly soft or hard?

Also

!!!

Keep us posted on what happens with your chicken

Thanks for the reply. What I have is a hen that lays gigantic eggs. This is my first go at chickens, so I tried to re-insert the prolapsed area and applied preparation H. She is not lethargic and is eating and drinking, I am hoping that she will recover.
