My Buff Orphington has a lump under her vent area.
She’s a year and a half old and currently had an extreme molt at the start of winter and a week or so ago had a second light one but then stopped. She hasn’t produced an egg in a month either.
She’s running around with the flock but noticed she was laying down more than usual during the day.
Vent doesn’t look swollen and her comb is pink.
Her crop seems to be squishy but never been full up like it usually is.
I also noticed she’s only had a small poop in an hour or span.
When I checked her underside I noticed a small lump.

Is it dangerous and should I be worried? Do I need a vent immediately? Thanks!

In the second photo you can see her vent and then the lump farther down

I'd leave her alone for now. Maybe you can wait a little longer and then see if it gets worse if it does maybe you can ask BYC again.

Thanks! I’m just really worried it could be dangerous
