Thing hanging from my chicken?

[Ol Grey Mare]

That's *very* serious. Time to see a vet or euthanize her yourself. So sorry.

X 2 - this is one of those situations where action, one way or the other, must be taken quickly - for the sake of the bird.

Well **** it then........thank you guys for all your help I guess i'm just gonna have to put her down, I was kinda worried about it when i had seen the blood loss but i had hoped i would have been able to do something for her but i guess gotta play the cards your dealt.

Again thanks for the help guys.

So sorry.

I think even with veterinary care her prognosis would be poor.

Even with the bad news i just wanna thank everyone for the quick help, i had made a dozen calls and texts before i joined this forum and everybody i talked to had no idea what it was. So i wanna think all y'all you really helped me and fast!

You are really welcome. It's too bad about your poor hen. I hope you will continue to look at the forum. It has helped most of us learn a lot about our chickens.

Just sorry we couldn't help you to fix her. That would have been much more satisfying. It's not often that we suggest euthanizing a bird or that we are unanimous in our opinions but in this case it is pretty clear cut and I hope that gives you some comfort in doing what is required. Good luck. I know it is not an easy task.
