Fecal path report help

[ksRNmama]

Well, an update for you and a few more questions....since last posting, I treated each bird individually with weight based Safeguard, & Corid in the water for 5 days. Threw away eggs for 2 weeks

Things seemed better the first week, egg production was more normal, birds looked better. I now see only a few of my 22 adults with poopy chicken butts (compared to 5-6ish), overall fewer abnormal poops, and the smaller (chick and juvenile poops) look almost all normal.

But I’m still concerned about several of the adult poops.... attaching some pics for feedback. There are also the random really dark muddy looking ones, or dark diarrhea, and the creamy yellowish brown ones, and then MoST are what I’d describe as normal......

I’m hesitant to take another fecal to my vet Bc I know some population of internal parasites is normal, right?

Thanks in advance - any input would be much appreciated, again.

Are they free ranging? If yes, it may be because they are eating different things out there. Also you may need to use the fenbendazole again, maybe.

The recommended Corid treatment is 5 days at full strength, then 7-14 days at 1/4 strength.

They have a chicken “yard”, which is fenced at about 40x30?, so not free ranging right now....

And dang, about the Corid. So I did the 5 days at full strength, but didn’t know I needed to do 1/4 for 2 weeks! Should I restart the 5 days?
