I have a small runner who is 9 months old. I was in the yard with her when she laid her first egg and her vent came part way out, but went back in. A couple months later she did prolapse and it was a brutal time getting it to heal. Every single time she pooped it came out and I had to put it back in and I tried everything and probably read every post on here for help. It was so traumatizing for us both, she stopped eating and I thought that was the end, but then I found that I could put a giant bandaid on her bum and it was keeping the prolapse in. She healed and it's been great, until just a few days ago when she laid her first egg in three months. It prolapsed again and this time it's also coming out with every poop and the bandaids aren't working. I can put it back in with honey to try to shrink the tissues, and it pops back out a minute later or 15 minutes later, whenever she poops. I know when spring comes and egg-laying time again it will most likely be a recurring event. I feel terrible for her - she's such a young one and it seems like such a waste to put her down. But on the other hand she's suffering every time I replace it and I just don't see how it's going to get better. Has anyone had a similar situation with a prolapse that keeps occurring with the same bird?
