    Yellow Gelatinous Excretion (Poop? Egg?)

    I wish I could post a video so you could see the movement. What I’m calling suction cups may just be a mouth. It makes a big “O”. Thank you for the info on the visible worms- very helpful!

    What Kind of Worms Are These?

    Is it safe to treat them all? I don’t know which one has them. Also, is it okay to use equimax the same day I used safeguard?

    What Kind of Worms Are These?

    Hi there- my chickens have worms. I have looked at the sketches and pictures of types of worms but cannot find any that I feel confident are the ones my girls have. Can anyone ID these for me, please? They are very active/wiggly and look like they have suction cups on one end. Thank you!

    Poop Question

    Oh good…thank you. I have never wormed them. I have never seen any worms or signs that they have them. I’m not even sure I’d know how to worm them…

    Poop Question

    Hi there- the past couple of days one of my hens has been pooping a strange color- like a pale caramel. Is this normal or is there something amiss? Thank you! (Trying to post a picture)

    Is it a Pimple?

    Yes, it is hard, and when I scraped it, it didn’t open. It’s kind of tough. I considered lancing it and seeing if I could get something out, but didn’t want to mess with it until I tried to find out more.

    Is it a Pimple?

    Hi all- my hen has a small yellow nodule on her face. Has anyone seen this before or can you identify it for me? I can’t seem to find anything online that looks like it. Thank you!
