Vent gleet/prolapse/abscess? What am I missing

I suspect she is hurting, I haven’t given pain killers due to the bleeding. I will though once I know she is no longer at risk of bleeding. Thats a great idea, I will see if the pet store nearby sells that
That was smart thinking not to give her aspirin or anything that would thin her blood!

Even without the Kaytee you could still make balls and try to feed her a few. I forgot to mention to add a little water to help make the balls but you'd have figured that out. :)

Yes once its been Blood free for a few days I will give her the asprin. Suprisingly her crop is like 1/2 full from the small 3ml force feeds im giving. Must be mostly water shes got in there. For now maybe I try crumble balls with nutridrench may be easier than a syringe
 
Unfortunately the closest petsmart is over an hour away. I have a pet value 30 mins away though
Pet stores, except for Walmart, are all an hour away from us, so I got mine at Chewy last year.
 
Not much change today. No more blood, still poor appetite. While applying her ointments to her vent today there was another little chunk of dead grey tissue she was trying to pass. It was unattached and came out. Hoping this dead tissue does not cause further internal issues. I force fed balls of food and her antibiotics of course. Hoping she gets an appetite soon as she is skin and bones and won’t survive winter without more fat. She spends all day grooming herself instead of eating. Any suggestions for rapid weight gain? I will keep her inside until shes healthy and fattened up.
 
I am reading asprin has to be near fatal doses to have notable pain relief for chickens. On top of not being recommended for internal bleeding because of the blood thinning. I have left over gabapentin, Anyone tried that? Google says its used for pain relief in chickens. I have some 100 mg capsules that used to be for my dog. I want to see if she eats more with pain relief
