Hen screams when she poops help please

Is the bulge soft and squishy, like it could be a hernia? Can you post a picture? If she responded to the mineral oil, I would give her some chilled coconut oil every day or two, chopped into small bits, up to a tsp full, to offer her.

well im not sure if its squishy but its not hard either. she didn't feel hard or squishy between her legs. I think now she could possibly have an egg sges needing to lay on top of whatever her issue is. I plan to take her to vet first thing or after lunch because she seems worse. so she would eat the coconut oil pieces??

No the bulge is still there

I'm not sure... try to keep her comfy and warm.

Most chickens will peck at some chips of coconut if it is chilled and cut into small pieces. Let us know what the vet has to say.

ok I have an update. im going straight to the result. she has an impaction of small gravel stuff in the place where the poop comes from everything has went through the crop as far as I could understand but impacted on down some. that's the problem.

ok when we got there waited a few minutes the dr. came in put on the blue glove and did an internal exam. there was no egg he couldn't feel anything no tumor no egg no nothing. so he said incase there is an egg on further up he gave her a shot that should have made her lay the egg within 10 minutes he said. 10 minutes passed...no egg. they suggested xrays so I agreed. he called me in to look at them and there it was plain as day the impaction. so he gave her something that should help her pass it kinda like constipation. sent us home with 4 more doses. were home now gave her a bottom bath and shes exhausted so shes resting
I did not expect to come back home with her I was expecting the worst so thankful she will probably be A OKAY!!!! oh the total bill was 160$ so she should be ok

Glad that you got a diagnosis and a plan for treatment. Hopefully, she will get along okay. Make sure that she is drinking plenty of water. Let us know how she gets along.
