Hi - first time chicken owner here
One of my pullets (hard to tell which) has had yellow, foamy poops for 10 days. I did a quick google search and it seems colour/consistency points to diarrhea. Here are the details:
-none of them are acting different then usual; they are all drinking water, eating, playing, perching as usual.
-there is not a lot of diarrhea, just 1 or 2 every day I come home and look
-they are in a chicken tractor which is moved daily from one patch of grass to another
-they have a dust bath made of dirt and sand, and nesting boxes filled which commercial sawdust
-we have been putting apple cider vinegar in their water, and giving them bits of yogurt
-they normal eat a diet of growers crumble with some hen scratch, grit, and meal worms here and there
Any suggestions? Should we be worried? Any advice is much appreciated.
