My rooster has been seperated, after his bath. He has a swolen vent, with some rank leakage, and crusty skin. He seems constipated too and wimpers when he tries to poop. He does manage to get some out, but i can see more stuck inside the vent. I dont see any sign of worms. Or other parasites in him or any other of my flock. He is the only one infected. I added acv to his water and neosporin original to his bum. He is trying his best to be strong for his girls, but i can tell he isnt 100% he takes naps and hasnt crowed in a couple days! He doesnt even chase off the cat.... that might be a good thing?

That's a good picture of the vent. It really does look like pictures I've seen of vent gleet. I'm sorry I don't have more experience to offer with this but I know you should apply a topical antifungal.
If I were you I'd get the vaginal yeast infection cream, the 3 dose version should work well, and deposit (with the included plunger) maybe 1/2 the recommended human dose just inside the vent every day for 3 days. Maybe also take the other 1/2 of the dose and massage it into the external parts of the vent.

I hope someone with more experience than I chimes in, but if I were in your situation that's what I'd do.
