Prolapsed vent-Fixed but what now?

[Yogaliciouschick]

Ok so I have a little Frizzle and she had a prolapsed vent, I put it back and it has stayed for two days. Yesterday she laid an egg and no problems. But now I am worried about infection. I bought some Duramycin-10 but that seems to be a bit much. I have been feeding her chick food since that has some antibiotics in it but is there anything else I should do? She is happy and eating and drinking I just want to be on the safe side.

I would observe her for a few days before adding antis.., I am not a fan of antibiotics at all as they make the whle flock more susecptible to disease.. I would watch it if their is any imflamtion try plain triple antibiotic cream and or warm sea salt bath...

It does not seem to be inflamed. I have decided not to use the Duramycin and just give her the medicated chick food for a few more days. She is pirching on the side of the rubbermaid tub that she is in so she seems to be doing just fine, but I am just a worried chicken mom. I will observe her for a few more days. Thanks for your advice. I don't like antibiotics either but she has made it this far I just don't want to loose her from infection.
