*URGENT* Pecked Prolapsed Rectum

[OhioClucker]

My chicken (that is more like a dog) has a prolapsed rectum, the issue is that we found it as the chickens were being put in for the night. It is bright red, we caught her pecking it and swatted away another chicken attempting to peck it. We have brought her inside, put her into a dark area, giving scratch grains, and water. What else can we do?? I don't want to attempt to reinsert if it's injured tissue. We don't have any vets in our area that treat chickens so we're limited to the advice we can get here. Please help! I don't want to lose my buddy!

Rinse it off well, get her on antibiotics, and rub some preparation H on it. Then try gently pushing it back in. Keep her in a dark (not pitch black) room without much food so she won't try laying and hurt herself again.

I hope this helps. Best of luck!
