LittleOwl Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 One of my girls, aged about 2 yrs 6 months, had just started dripping blood from her back end. She was pottering about quite happily before this, though I don;t think she has been laying much recently, if at all, but most of the girls of this age have eased up on the laying too so I thought nothing of it. The blood is bright red, and looks fresh and is very liquid. Does anyone have any advice or ideas of what to do please? Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abwsco Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Think you need to get her to a vet a.s.a.p. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 It could be a prolapse, could be that her vent has been pecked - but either way I think this is one for a vet, it doesn't sound like something you can deal with at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleOwl Posted August 26, 2012 Author Share Posted August 26, 2012 Thank you. It is a prolapse, and I followed guidelines from here and other places. There is no more blood, the egg (with membrane but no shell) slipped out cleanly. She has been cleaned, prolapse pushed in as best I can, manuka honey cream on it, is on her own in the dark for now. She seems relaxed and chirpy. I shall monitor her now and overnight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
