PLZZZ HELP

[chicken20v]

my hen has been sad lately and yesterday she laid a egg with no shell so i gave her calcium for her eggs and today she tried to lay a egg but she couldn’t and she was squatting so i put in warm water and espon salt for 30 min and then took her out and blow dried her and while i was blow drying her she started to push so i thought she was pushing a egg but so i let her push for 5 min and then when i checked on her vent it looked weird and i don’t know if it’s normal while she’s pushing or not but she’s doing fine right now she’s walking eat and drinking also cleaning her self but sometimes she stops and pushes then continue walking around like nothing happen but her vent still like that and she poops but theirs traces of blood and i don’t know what to do because the vet is only available in a month and she’s the only one which is a 4 hour drive and i don’t know what to do She’s 10 months

Looks like she's trying to prolapse. Let me tag you some help.

Read this to understand what is causing your hen's problem. https://www.backyardchickens.com/ar...ng-from-vent-prolapse-oh-my-what-to-do.76124/

You need to give her more calcium. She needs at least 330mg right now. Calcium citrate works quickest but any form will work as long as it's the strength I mentioned.

Remove this hen from the flock until this resolves or the others will assume the prolapse is fresh meat for them to peck at. That would injure her gravely.

Let us know how she does with her prolapsed vent after she has another dose of calcium. That can her lay an egg or help the prolapse to go back inside. Keep the prolapse tissue from drying out by applying vaseline or hydrocortisone cream, or other mild oil.

Can you get a picture? Is she separated from the other chickens? Have they pecked at it?

yes she is separated she sleeps by herself and the area is wet because she keeps pooping and it gets on her feather and her vent is wet but it looks bigger then yesterday
