Young cockerel with a prolapse?
« on: October 12, 2009, 22:11 »
Barry my 14 week old Light Sussex cockerel appears to have a problem  :wub:
Yesterday I noticed he had a bit of a mucky bum. Today, on closer inspection he not only has a mucky bum but a red protuberance that he was worrying. Couldn't catch him so waited 'til he went to bed and hauled him out and gave him a bath and a proper look.
Can cocks get piles? (Can't spell the "H" word) I popped it back in but when he had a poo (normal) out it popped again.  :ohmy:
I've put him to bed now. He seems ok in himself but this surely is not a good thing in one so young?
Suggestions anyone please?

The bit in question pops out when hes treading a hen to form a sort of cup to cup seal .

He probably could do with a rest from the hens. :wacko:

 :ohmy: But he's only 14 weeks old and I haven't seen him doing his thing yet!  :unsure:
Are you sure? Looks like a little red marble? Sounds logical, but.............he doesn't even crow yet  :blink:
