Below are Normal Droppings (poop, manure)
These last three pictures have shed intestinal lining in them, rather normal, not a cause for concern.
Coral-coloured Urates ~ These are frequently deposited overnight and are quite normal
Oily and Foamy ~
Ceacal ~
These are produced from the caecum of the chicken and are mustard to dark brown froth. They are expelled every 8 to 10 droppings.
Watery ~
Watery droppings can be produced by hens that are too hot. It can be a way for them to cool down by drinking a lot and losing some of their heat in frequent wet droppings. It can also be a sign that the hens are not eating enough too.
Abnormal poos ~
Coccidiosis produces blood in faeces.
Clostridium perfringens.
The hen who produced this specimen was an older bird who became very thirsty.
She is producing a large number of watery urates the cause of which is unknown, but could possibly be a kidney problem.
The hen who produced this specimen was about 25 weeks old. She went off her food and ate so little she became underweight. She held her tail down and was tired. She may have had worms and/or egg peritonitis.
