Chicky Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 I have 2 hens, last night one of them seems to have had a prolapse. She is 4 years old and not laying. I'm wondering if there is anything I can do to help her. I have separated the two hens because the one hen is pecking her bottom. The hen herself doesn't seem to be distressed. I'm very upset what woud you suggest; do I put her to sleep or is there a cure?? Thanks for any advice you can give me. Love Alex xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Some advice here. In the first instance I would clean it up as best you can, and try to reinsert it. She will try to push it out, but if you hold it in for a while, it might stay put. If it has gone black it will be too late I'm afraid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicky Posted May 1, 2011 Author Share Posted May 1, 2011 Quick update, Penny seemed to be picking up for a few days but unfortunately died peacefully in her favourite corner of the garden. Miss her so much thank you for all your help Love Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
