Hen has Bloody Vent Shaking Head

[Just1bean]

My 6 yr old Rhode Island Red hen has bloody vent and tail and is shaking head. I have isolated her from flock. No sign of fighting. Concerned if prolapse or bound egg maybe? Not sure if I should I bath in epsom salt and check for possible bound egg? Or use peroxide? Any help appreciated.

Could you post some picture of the injuries in question?

When did she last lay an egg?
Has she ever had problems with egg laying in the past?

Do you have a chicken only flock or are there ducks/drakes as well with the chickens?

Ill go out and get some pics. She has slowed egg production significantly as of late.

I only have 4 chickens. They are all over 6 yrs old and no issues otherwise

Its not a very good picture. I cleaned her up as best I could with warm water. Cant feel anything impacted.
