This morning, I noticed the following, which I think is roundworms. Every morning, I clean out the coop, I haven't noticed an uptick of diarrhea (maybe two incidents?) with the ladies, mostly firm fecal droppings.The flock ranges in age from 4-2 years old. I have noticed one of my eggers kinda hunched but seems to bound out of the coop the last couple of mornings. We've had severe storms so thought she was sensitive to the forthcoming storms. Egg laying Early March, I sent in a fecal sample to the state poultry lab, which diagnosed small amount of capillaria worms. Treated flock with Safeguard paste, last round of treatment two weeks ago. Seeking advice to see if my hunch is correct, that it is roundworms.
