poop

I looked at chicken feces charts, and am unsure how to categorize this... Also, it dried a bit, but a few minutes ago, it had a bit more white around the main fece.... Yesterday, and for the last few days it has been 60-70 degrees. Last night it dropped to 37 degrees, and it still is. So...

One of my (3 week old) chicks seems to struggle with big (painful) poops and currently is slightly prolapsed. I’ve witnessed her having a large poop, and “cheep cheep cheeping” like there’s discomfort, so I’m of the mindset that she’s straining from that, not heat? However I know I read...

My rooster Bobbo has always been a bit of a weirdo, but lately I have noticed him chewing on goat poop. I also saw him swallow a piece, which is very strange. I feed him plenty of food and give him snacks during the day, so I don’t believe it is because he is hungry. He also has 1 1/2 nice acres...

New chicken keeper here. My little Silkie splash hen had some red stringy stuff in her poop today. Picture attached. Should I be worried? Some more info on my girl: I got her back in October. She is supposedly a little over a year old. She just started laying eggs for me in November. I’ve...

Hi I went in to my chickens coop this morning and I looked on The floor and I saw this. It looks like worms in a pile of bloody poo there was more but I must've stepped on it. Can anyone tell me what this means and how to treat it

I’ve been keeping calls for almost a decade now, but this is the first clutch I’ve raised indoors (due to weather and parental rejection) meaning I’ve been able to much more closely monitor their diets and poops. They’re almost five weeks now and have started pooping mostly liquid, sometimes...

Hello! I am new to the chicken world. I have a 17 week old Olive Egger whose poop seems abnormal. I recently purchased her and 3 other pullets a week ago. She is eating, drinking, scratching, and acting like a normal chicken as far as I can tell. I spend between 30 minutes to an 1 hour a day...

Found in coop. 5 week old chicks that have just been moved outside. Not sure which one it is - so I split the group in half for the night and will try to figure out from there. Kinda crazy bc these guys have only been outside grazing the last 5-7 days and temps haven’t been above 73 so not...

I’m just so baffled as to what’s wrong with my chicken .. it has been 3 days now she sleeps all day has her feathers puffed out lays in the corner all day and barely drinks or eat attached are pictures of her poop and her in the corner any help would be greatly appreciated

Noticed this poop tonight on my nightly check. It’s from my new chick that I got a week ago. She’s 9 weeks old. It’s got red in it and I’m not sure if that’s healthy or not? What’s your thoughts?

My chicks had diarrhea and abnormally smelly poo and one of them seems really tired, so i decide to treat the chicks for cocci (they dont sell corid here but it has amprolium in it). after a week the chick was getting better and no more diarrhea but the chick didn't seem to be fully well. i had...

hi! my one and a half year old female fawn runner had a normal poop (blue from blueberries lol) and something small, yellow and slimy came out with it. i thought upon first looking that it was a small slug, because it looks and feels like one, but she hasn't eaten any slugs that i know of (we've...

Does anyone know what’s wrong from the pics? I separated him. I gave them vegan macaroni leftovers yesterday. Here’s the link to the recipe, maybe it’s from that? https://detoxinista.com/best-vegan-mac-n-cheese/ Sorry for the disgusting 🤮 pics

New to chickens! Just got a few pullets a couple nights ago and they appear healthy. I had a bag of Purina layer pellets from when our ducks were still with us and so they ate that for a day until I could get to our local Bomgaars for chick starter. Switched to the chick starter last night...

I found unusual poop, is it blood? I do not know which chicken's it was, none of them has symptoms. Two had inflammed eye in the past week, were separated. Also, one marans has this unsolid beige poop for the past 1-2 weeks, is it okay? Also no symptoms... Thanks for advice.

Question 1: What does this type of feces mean? Question 2: Is it intestinal shedding?

Hi! I suspect that my 3ish month old coturnix quail might have worms. After about a weekish of stress (she was being bullied - its been fixed now) I noticed her poops started to get watery and a little lighter. Hoping it was just a reaction to stress I decided to wait it out. That was some...

So i have this chick that is about 3 days now, she is struggling to poop and the shrieking makes me feel so bad. She will squat for about 10 seconds shrieking. When i look at her from behind she is always pushing. She barely gets anything out, i helped get 3 little, what looks like undigested...
