Prolapsed Chicken Vent

My hens are about to turn 2yrs old and I have my first prolapsed vent. Came straight here to get the best info. They all get the same nutrition so I think it's because she eats feathers. Now how to stop her from eating feathers.
Thank you for this. We have a member needing help with a prolapsed vent and I've never had a chicken with it so searched for something to help them. This is it! Thank you!
Very interesting. I had a bird prolapse due to a large tumor in her intestinal track.
