Hi all, I need some help figuring out what’s going on here. Yesterday I noticed that my Australorp had a very red vent area, it appeared that the inner area was protruding a bit. It seemed a little bloody...although not so much bloody as just red and irritated. Totally not the case today. Today she is bleeding from what appears to be just inside (around the edges of the inside) of her vent area. Also, there’s a line of poop that has streamed down out of her vent that she’s constantly preening or trying to clean. I’ll post a pic bc I think that’ll help a lot, as it’s hard to describe what I’m seeing!
She is eating, drinking, foraging and appears “ok” but she definitely has something wrong. No idea if she’d laid yet today but I believe she did yesterday and know for a fact she laid an egg on Thursday. She just turned one year old. I’m going to go in and clean her up but I have NO idea what else to do. I’ll likely apply blu-kote too. Please help if you can!!! Thank you!!!
