Vent Gleet

If she will drink electrolytes, I would give her those for 1 day.

I'm sorry she's still not doing well.
It sounds like she's having reproductive issues. The panting may be stress or pain - hard to know which if it's not hot.

Yep, I think it was Eggcessive who said it might be reproductive problems.😢 Maybe I should let her be and make her as comfortable as I can.
Thanks again.
 
:hugs I'm so sorry she's not doing well.
I think you have done all you can do at this point. See how she does over the next few days.

Thanks. You have been kind, helpful and patient with me.:hugs:hugs I couldn't have managed to be in Crazytown without your guidance... Chicken had a fairly normal BM this morning so Im taking that as a good sign. 🤛

Normal poop is good! We take what we can get LOL

You have done all the work! I really wish I knew more, it can be frustrating when they aren't dong well.
 
Can you please post some photos of the hen and her vent?
What symptoms of Vent Gleet are you seeing?

I would continue to apply the anti-fungal cream if that's what you have been doing.
Make sure her crop is empty first thing in the morning before she eats/drinks.
Keep water stations cleaned.

Not sure about Epsom Salts being syringed into her - that's usually a "remedy" for crop issues.

You ask about Nu Stock and how much to give...It is meant to be applied Topically - not given orally, so if that's something you wish to use, apply a small amount to the reddened skin.

Wyorp Rock. My hen is sick again😢
she has been doing so well. Now the last few days I see the yellow milky goo coming from her vent. She is constantly crying, it seems even when she isn’t trying to poop. It makes me so sad.

I don’t know what to do? should I start treating her again?

I'm sorry that she's started to decline again:(
Can you feel for an egg?

I can’t feel anything like an egg. Her crop is emptied by morning.
this morning I cleaned the area with Betadine and put some antibiotic ointment in and around the area.
Is she still straining and having a hard time pooping?
I would speculate that she's got infection and possible lash material she's trying to pass, but it's so hard to know.
