I just noticed one of my French Copper Maran hens wasn’t acting normal. When I caught her, I saw that she had something hanging out of her vent. I was able to pull it out of her vent (which looked normal and fine) and initially thought she managed to pass a really soft egg. When I broke the egg-looking thing open, I saw something that I need help identifying (see attached pictures).
I have only been a chicken keeper for 4 years and have never seen anything like this. Does someone out there know what this is? Is it a parasite? When I broke open the red mass, it was empty. I am so confused. Thanks for any help on this!!
