Hens vent

[Kandees Clucks]

This morning Waddles my red sexlink hen wasnt acting right. Back was dumped her comb is losing some of its red color on tops. Her wings are close to ground. Tonight looked at her vent to see if issue was there & I saw what looked like white dried stuff there & & guessing she cant poop. What is this & how do I fix this problem if possible without hurting her
Thanks

A few in focus pictures of the area would be an enormous help for anyone who visits the thread to try and help.

Pictures would help. But you definetly need to clean up that area. If things are really stuck, you might need to clip the feathers around her vent. A good enzyme shampoo is always good to have on hand for such cases, but you can use a small amount of dawn dish soap if you don't have any of that. First step is to clean it up.

Take some pictures and post them.
