I don't think you are harping at all and appreciate your advice. I have been adding DE to their feed for months, but I will go ahead and treat for worms just to make sure.

I read about Cocci and I don't think it's that. There's no blood and she's acting normal except for eating. I just let her have a romp around the yard and she did some dusting in the garden and a lot of pecking in the dirt for bugs. I tried some eggs this morning, but she wouldn't have any of...
Okay... now I'm getting really worried.
When I first saw the diarrhea about a week ago, I searched the forum and it seemed that it was associated with the molt. I looked at the poo chart and I guess it mostly looks like third really watery Ceacal. Really watery. Really. No solid poop under...

I bought the plans for the Catawba coop and I think I get the 60 degree / 30 degree cuts but I'm not positive. Isn't 60 and 30 just opposite of each other? He shows how to do the 60 degree cuts in the directions by putting the miter saw on 30... so then how to I get a 30 degree cut? Put it...
It's not official yet, but I should get permission from the City Manager next week to have up to 3 hens in my large backyard here in Bell County, TX (between Waco and Austin).
