A happy hen with diarrhea

[Bird is the word]

Same thing happens to a few of my hens and they are all wormed and perfectly healthy but still get diarrhea not sure why ?

Hi there,
I have a 6 month old hen (isa brown) who has had diarrhea now for 3-4 weeks. She is wormed and lice checked and I put acv in the drinking water. She's a happy hen that loves her food, still forages and drinks as normal. She lays almost every day so it's a real mystery to me! My other two hens are completely fine. What could be causing it

For my hens the poop is kind of foamy and orange but no blood or any anything else

I wonder if it could then be gleet. How do you treat something like that?

That's cecal poop, completely normal.

Thankyou so much for sharing that article. It is very thorough and simple to do. I will try as she suggested.

Yes! Thanks, @Tookie! I was traveling abroad and was in and out of cell reception. It takes a while to get it all cleared up. I had a hen who had gleet twice over her lifetime. Her backside would get filthy with gritty feeling whitish/greenish stuff. A couple of weeks of diligent cleaning and treatment with yeast meds cleared things right up.

Keep us posted!
