All girls intact overnight - 3 eggs laid ( one hen in process of laying as i write) :-)08 , 4 hens have made there way out of the coop into the run ( one is particularly brave) of the 2 remaining - one is on the nest and the other i can see has a pink bulge protruding from her vent :cry: I have rung up the British Hen welfare trust who advises me to take her out, wash the vent in salt water ( maybe some annusol?) and gently place the prolapse back inside and hold for 10 mins...she then said i need to keep her somewhere safe and quiet :-)19 feeling mighty anxious about doing this on her first day :?
 
HI Fuzzyfelt. Hope the prolapse has remained in place. We've had one that I pushed in a couple of times and which then stayed in place. Annie Blackrock it was -a lovely hen of whom I have very fond memories.
