    Impacted crop- strange green, foul smelling poop

    I posted before about my girl with an impacted crop. I’ve gotten her moving some and she’s pooped, but it’s all very dark greenish and smells horrible. Not like a cecal poop or ammonia, like gasoline like? There is a chemical quality to it. Very strong. Anyone know what this smell is or had...

    Trouble defecating, otherwise completely normal

    One of my buff orpington hens (2 years old) has had trouble defecating for months now, with no signs of anything being wrong other than her straining to defecate and only letting out very little at a time. Her feces looks completely normal besides it being very small, and she is showing...

    Clear, watery feces - 2 year old hen

    Hello all! This morning I went to the coop to let the girls out, and my normally peppy, clingy EE was seeming "off". She was slow to the feeder, and wasn't attached to my hip like normal. She did show interest in breakfast, but after just went and sat quietly under a tree by herself. Noticing...

    Hen with Green Poop and Cold.

    My Hen looks tiresome after laying egg yesterday. This morning I observed her poop/feces is color green with white. Could somebody give some recommendations on how to treat her? Please. I'm just a beginner in raising free-range chickens, your recommendation will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Silkie Hen Messy Vent Feathers

    Hi guys, I'm attaching photo(s) of my silkie hens butt feathers. I gave her a bath 3-4 weeks ago since she had so much poop built up on her feathers and now it looks yucky again.

    Diarrhea, cecal poop, pre-laying poop or something else?

    Here there - just wanted some opinions on what kind of feces you think this might be? I just went to check on my gang of pullets and cockerels and one of my crew must have just left it. There are no other signs of this kind of feces, all the other feces are normal. We are experiencing some...

    Pine Shavings Question

    I'm sure this has possibly been covered in all of the years of this forum, however in my amateur googling of the forum, I didn't find it.

    Duck Poop

    I don't own any ducks, but from what I've heard from others, ducks tend to have particularly large, liquid-y dumps. Especially when compared to chickens. Is that the general case in y'all's experiences? If so, why do do ducks have these sort of feces? And is this a running trend with all...

This morning I found some strange looking mush, it was right next to some fox scat... and then next to THAT WAS canine/feline scat (we have outdoor cats and dogs so I assume that was them). It flabbergasts me that...
