My 1 1/2 y/o hen has diarrhia, swollen hole and has not given me any eggs for 2 days. Any ideas on what she has and what to do for her?
 
Could it be a prolapse? Where the inside of the hole (vent) has slipped outside?

or is it swollen inside and the chicken is bulging. Maybe eggbound?

Is a vet an option? or pictures?

Bring her inside, keep her warm and in dim light. You might want to try a warm bath.
You could also try gently feeling inside her with a generously lubed finger, to see if there is an egg stuck.

Good luck and sorry your first post is about a sick hen.
