Prep H without caines or painkiller is recommended to bring down tissue swelling so the prolapse will recede.

Also should keep her on minimal light conditions so her egg production backs off and the prolapse has a chance to heal.

@holm25
   What is the story behind your cute picture? or did I miss it?

Thats my little cousin and "her" little Cochin banty. Its the onpy chicken she likes. Out of the three bantys the fluffy ones were her favorite... Not much of a story... Just showing a future poultry nut... I hope

Came home to a prolapsed hen tonight.  Have her all cleaned up and am trying to help her.  Fingers crossed she recovers... 

fingers crossed here!

PS - If you arent familiar with prolapse,dont google it. it is pretty stomach turning. DW was brave and helped me with her but i know she was holding back the upchuck.

Thanks since you said DONT do it,,,i just had to...

@KlopKlop - hope your hen is doing ok. Unlike @Coffee 1st I will not google it per your recommendation.

I had a hen climb up in a snowbank and make a nest.

There will be no broody in this one.

The second hatch is all gone except 3 boys, They live with the 2 from the first hatch.

They live in the living room so they can watch TV with me..
