A few questions! We just got 6 six yesterday from our local feed store. Once we got them home, I noticed one had a crusty caked bum and upon closer inspection a prolapsed vent. Went straight here and read through the threads I could find on it. Hubs tried gently pushing it back in, but it popped right back out within 5 minutes. We’ve been putting Vaseline on it, keeping her separated, cleaning it when needed, etc. Any chance it will resolve on its own? She’s just under a week old, I believe.
Also do I need to just leave her be as much as possible, or is in okay to tuck her carefully into my shirt to keep her from being super lonely and crying?
