I have a Hen that I noticed had poop stuck to her feather and blocking her vent. She's been like this for a few weeks. I cleaned her up as soon as I could after seeing it, used warm water to remove all the poop. The vent was raw looking so I put some anitbiotic cream on it and when I let her go she had a poop so I thought she may have been messy and then it froze when the temperature dropped. Now she is still like this and the vent is closed off and the poop is dried to her. I was able to put some Vaseline on it last night to try and loosen some of it but we have an extra cold warning right now and I'm not able to do anything with her at this moment. Just wondering what could be causing this and how to help her out. The pictures aren't the best.
