Swollen vent and runny poop

[MamaB]

One of my chickens has a swollen vent and white and sometimes clear poop. She is eating and drinking and also laying just fine. She seems to be feeling fine. Sometimes it looks as if there there is clear almost gooey liquid coming from her vent. I gave her a warm bath this morning to clean her vent and she laid fine very soon after. I hope this is something I can help her with!

First, the white part of the feces is normal. Chickens do not urinate and expel uric acid along with their feces. Do not worry about the white stuff.
The runny/watery poop is a bit of a concern. A change in diet can do this and if eating more fruit Watch for blood and make sure they have plenty of clean fresh water as too much loss of liquid wil lkill . There are products available at feed stores to add to the grain they eat to help reduce this problem but be careful of overuse.
Now it could also mean worms so use 1 steamed whole head of garlic mashed and added to cooked brown rice. 1 1/2 c water to 1 cup brown rice. Boil water, add rice , cover pot, turn heat down to low, cook for 45 mins. feed each morning for at least 3 days.
