Abnormal chicken poop

[Sally PB]

My chickens' first experience with a cucumber led to diarrhea. Now when I give them any new treat, I make it a small amount and watch for differences in the poop when I clean the next day.

Lots of poop pictures and info on how a chicken's digestive system works.

Oh sweet yeah I've looked at that site before but looking at it again these two seem closest to what I think I see . Do you think it could be some kinda bacterial thing?

Still been watching this strange poop and just found that whiteish yellow one but don't know who's been doing it. Anyone think its coccidiosis?

Anyone have thoughts on that white/ yellowish poo ?

Have you cut out all those extras?
Do you know which bird that excreted it?

I did for a few days but now they only get one ear of corn per day or some broccoli and only yesterday I gave them the seed scratch I was giving them before. They get to go out of the pen for little but per day too. I was thinking about deworming them but idk

I did for a few days

Not really long enough.
Give them nothing but a good chicken ration and plain water for a couple of weeks.
See if that improves the droppings.

Ok ill start that for a few weeks but all they really have been getting is a little corn , scratch and sometimes to be let out of the pen for a bit per day I did switch to medicated food. I found this today too so I started the Corid stuff just in case.

That looks like intestinal shedding rather than coccidiosis.
What exactly is the medication in the feed?
If it's amprolium, I don' think you're supposed to give corid when feeding it.
@Wyorp Rock @Eggcessive would know for sure.

Did you ever treat for Coccidiosis with Corid?
If not, then I think I would.
Dose for Liquid Corid is 2 teaspoons per gallon of water or Powdered Corid is 1 1/2 teaspoon per gallon of water. Give for 5-7 days as the only source of drinking water.
Don't add anything else to the water except for Corid.
