I wanted to see if anyone can help with an issue I have been having off and on with my hen. She is around 9 months old but has never laid. She has had issues off and on with her vent for the past few months. From what I have read it appears to be vent gleet however, she also has a clogged vent. Most of the time when she tries to poop she strains and very little comes out. I have bathed her off and on and it doesn't seem to be helping. Her vent also doesn't appear just round but elongated and clogged. It also appears to have some yellowish looking tissue in the middle of the "clog". She is in the coop with one other hen and other hen is fine. I have tried ACV in water, changing water frequently, adding probiotics to water and keeping the coop clean. She acts pretty normal, eating and drinking regularly. Again, this has been going on for a while but I am getting more concerned because what I have been trying doesn't seem to help. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
