Hi, I am new member to backyard chickens. I have 9 chickens for past 4 years. They have been healthy until last 6 months noticed one chicken losing bottom feathers and has discharge stuck to vent. She is eating and drinking and free ranging fine. Seemed to come and go, but now it is worse and...
Hello everyone!

I noticed it 4-5 days ago and thought it was pasty butt, but after two days of that I realized all of what I’m seeing is white. Its vent was bulging and swollen so I thought...
A month of two ago some of my hens got brutaly attacked by some mean hens (which I DO NOT have anymore).
They got their vents attacks severely. I've been watching them and I thought they were recovering well.
They had some weird discharge which I didn't take to concern because I thought it was...

It seems that my chickens got in a fight with one of my barred rocks (Dominique?) yesterday and they plucked it's tail and pecked at her vent. I washed it's tail and vent indirectly (I used warm water and soap and poured it one it's wounds). I brought it inside and today there is still some...

On Sunday evening, we found one of our hens under the nesting boxes. She was sitting with her legs out in front of her. We pulled her out and gave her water to drink and she gulped it down. We assumed she was just majorly dehydrated which was preventing her from being able to use her legs. After...
