    Yellow/Green poop, dirty butt, lethargic, breathing sounds like rattling

    My entire flock was given a dewormer and VetRX, tonight. I put a probiotic, and a flock wellness solution (vitamins, mineral, oregano oil, and other wellness ingredients) in the their water. The sickly hen is still in bad shape. Not eating or drinking much, but some. Still watery yellow urates.

    Yellow/Green poop, dirty butt, lethargic, breathing sounds like rattling

    Like a fool, we did not quarantine our fair birds before releasing them at home. I will always quarantine moving forward. I'm not sure when her last egg was. She is now separated, and caged for rest, so I will watch for eggs and for poops. I am picking up a flock dewormer tomorrow. All birds...

    Yellow/Green poop, dirty butt, lethargic, breathing sounds like rattling

    Thank you. Her belly doesn't visually look swollen. I felt around, I'm not sure how to identify what I'm really feeling, but nothing seems out of the ordinary. I will keep her clean, and take pics and check her urates. We bought our chickens from Valley Hatchery online 1 year ago In Aug. 2024...

    Yellow/Green poop, dirty butt, lethargic, breathing sounds like rattling

    I have now separated her from the rest of the flock. I soaked her in a warm epsom salt soak for about 25 minutes. She has electrolytes, vitamins, and lactobacillus added to her water. I'm not sure when her last egg was. And when I get a pic of her poops, I will post it. We did not quarantine the...

    Yellow/Green poop, dirty butt, lethargic, breathing sounds like rattling

    New chicken mom here! In my flock of 22, I have 1 hen that has a poopy butt, yellowy green in color, very lethargic, rattling breathing. I believe her belly feels firm and full, but I'm not quite an expert on that, yet. It's hard to tell in the picture, but her comb is not as red as her sisters...

    I want the pecking order to go back to how it used to be! Help!

    Update: we attempted to reintroduce the separated rooster into the flock, and immediately Tim and the mean rooster began fighting, and didn't stop. Needless to say, the mean rooster is back in time out until I find him a home or we cull him.

    Thank you. I will separate him. When I return him to the flock, I should do it at night, correct?

    I want the pecking order to go back to how it used to be! Help!

    Should the flock be able to see the roo in time out? Put him in a dog crate inside the run? Or completely separated? Then how long do you recommend the time out to be? And I do need to get rid of a roo, I just don't know where. I've tried. And I don't have the heart to...----

    I want the pecking order to go back to how it used to be! Help!

    We have 18 hens and 4 roosters, all just turned 1 year old. One roo, Tim, was managing the flock well, and he held his place proudly at the top of the pecking order. He seemed like a fair, patient, yet highly protective rooster. The flock seemed to be getting along just fine to me. Then, we took...
