She has lots of water in her poop all the time with small amount of solid stuffs. Her vent is wet all the time since she started to lay eggs 4 weeks ago. She lays one egg in about a week. The wet area is about two by two inches without any bad smell. Everything else seems fine. She eats, drinks, and active. Is the wet vent normal? Thanks a lot.
 
Yes. Here is the pic I could take. Thanks.

I had a Brahma hen that looked like that, what I did was trim her feathers pretty close around her vent area. If you do that you might be able to tell whats going on more, if it's just moist I wouldn't think its anything to worry about. Can you feel her abdomen down close to her vent to see if you can feel an egg?
