First question: I have this 1'n half year old female Wyandotte, and she is currently sick with Mareks,"well half sick because she as we think it getting better".. but this time we no how to treat it, well she has gotten better and she "as we think" doesn't have Mareks any more because she can now walk dig,talk

and eat, only thing keeping us from walking for-word is that she is now having Very green turds, there pure green, no white or any other color, we didn't give her a over amount of medicine, we did that exact measurements as the guide said, so we're currently stuck on this, does anyone no what this might be? :\\
Second question: I have some new chicks 4 1 month,3 5 months, and 1 3 month. Well 2 of the 1 months and 1 of the 5 months are having red turds, I don't no what is causing this so I thought I would ask you guys, I think it is a stress thing, seeing as they were taken away from there mothers, but I wasn't quite sure, and I didn't want to take any chances so I thought just ask the BYC's people

The red droppings coming from the chicks is probably Coccidiosis. I have had it in my chicks before, and it is pretty easily treatable if you follow the instructions good.
Treat them with Corid Amprolium, and it should cure it.

I dont know about the green droppings though.


Great Pictures!!

RED POO
GREEN POO
now to answer your question

#1b] the red poo is coccidiosis as the original mother would have had manure or poo that the chicks scratched in and ate so as the hen's poo would have cured them from getting coccidiosis

which is done automatically by the nature of the hen and chicks[/b]but as that did n't happen they got coccidiosis from the soil they were put on

SECONDthe green poo is a e.coli unbalance in the gut of the hen

that is easily taken care of

#1 FOR COCCIDIOSIS

if your going to only feed the hen and chicks the medication in their water and feed then you may have to make a make shift pen to isolated them in for 5-7 days while medicating for coccidiosis

for the hen and chicks do this
4 TBSP OF DRY CRUMBLE FEED
8 TBSP OF WATER
ADD 1 TSP OF SULMET
mix good and feed the hen and chicks
FEED THIS FOR TWO MORNINGS
THEN CLEAN THE WET FEEDER AND PUT THE DRY CRUMBLES BACK IN FEEDER[/b]
also put the medication in their waterers for the 5-7 days]

for the flock do this
THIS CAN BE MADE INTO 1 QT OF DRY FEED
2 QTS OF WATER
AND THEN ADD THE TSP OF SULMET

FOR HEN AND CHICKS
4 tbsp of dry crumble feed
8 tbsp of water
2 tsp of corid 9.6%
for two mornings
also put corid 2 tsp in gallon of water
for the 5-7 days for coccidiosis

If using corid 9.6% for the flock
1 QT OF of dry mash
2 QTS of water
add 2 tsp of corid 9.6% to the water
feed 2 tsp per chicken for a feeding
feed this two mornings to get the medication in the birds
also at same time put the corid or sulmet in the drinking water for 7 days each chick get 2 tsp of the wet mash with coccidiosis meds

speckled hen gives corid(9.6%) liquid in 2 tsp per gallon of water
And after medicating give the following things
either the corid amproylium or the sulmet will work but now you have a difficient gut problem with the E.coli
and it needs to have the Vitamin E put in the wet mash probiotic to help the E.coli gut problem

#2 GREEN POO
do this
now the
natural probiotic recipe is is:
3 tbsp of dry crumbles
4 tbsp of milk, sweet, sour, or buttermilk or a mixture of all or some
1 tbsp of yoguart of non flavored yoguart ( no artificial sweetmer)
mix good
AFTER PUTTING vIT'S IN
PUT 1 TBSP OF APPLE SAUCE FOR THE WET MASH PROBIOTIC

NOW THE IMPORTANT INGRIEDIENT FOR EACH CHICK FED
and add 1- 400 mg of Vit E by cutting the end off the vit E capsule for each chick fed this wet mash
putting it in the wet mash
this for HEN AND HER CHICKS

OR FOR each chick your treating
so for each chick use 2 tsp of mixture and 1-1000 mg of Vit E

twice a day for them till the manure is solid

and feed each chick
2 tsp full of the wet mash probiotic and what they will clean up in 20-30 minutes
then clean wet feeders and restock dry crumbles

do this twice a day for a week
till the chicks manure is right
then quit the Vit E make just the wet mash probiotic
then once a week for life

All the while after mdicating the birds use
do not use ACV with medication

2 tbsp of apple cider vinegar per gallon of the chicken water so their gut flora wil be regulated
they should have this at least 3-5 days a week
then three days aweek after they are over coccidiosis
the vit's are neccessary to clean up the damaged gut problem
take all the electrolytes out of the water

email me any questions so you are not confused

If you are feeding the chicks medicated feed, they should not have cocci at this age. It takes time to build up. I had some "red poo" occasionally with mine, but then realized that it was really "reddish brown" and that it was just CECAL POO and was normal.

Green poo could definitely be something like E. Coli like Glenda mentioned, but if your hen isn't eating much, green poo can also be caused by "excessive bile" in the poo. In other words, the liver puts out bile, and usually if there is a lot of poo, the green color gets diluted to brown and you don't see it. If a chicken isn't eating much, the bile-to-poo ratio can be increased, and thus you can see a green color. She may not be eating much after her illness/treatment.
 
Okay thanks, but its pretty red like Bright red, not dull red, all I want to no is how do I queer it? like what medicine do I use! how much! what do I add to it! thats all I want to no with the red poo but no one seems to me telling me
