My 1.5yr old EE had runny almost mucoid like discharge all over her back end. I brought her in yesterday, gave her a warm bath to get all the frozen poop/discharge off her and kept her in a kennel until she was dry enough to go back out side. She ate a bowl of oatmeal and chopped up egg readily while inside and I ensured she had a normal poop before going back out to the other 3 hens. This am the gloopy yellow snot like discharge is back. She's eat/drinking fine, came out of the coop without hesitation and is acting normal. I'm at a loss. I've dealt with bumblefoot and an egg yolk peritonitis in the past but this is baffling me. Is it gleet? Is it a broken egg? Her abdomen felted bloated but doughy and soft. She's not laid in awhile but it's been fridgid here and no one is laying much.
Thanks!
Thanks!
