Anyone Else's Chickens Have Watery Poop in the Morning?

[buffy-the-eggpile-layer]

I’m not sure what to say to that.... can you keep us posted, and let us know how they r tomorrow?

Will do. As of this afternoon still acting bright and eating and drinking. I let them free range for a while and checked their pen--all normal poops. So maybe it was a one-off. I wonder if my first de-worming didn't get 'em all. I don't know what else it could be besides that or cocci (or I just need to pay less attention lol--you won't see what you don't look for!).

Ok! I was not concerned until you mentioned blood, but let’s hope it’s nothing like cocci (although I doubt it considering they are normal every other way? Realize I am not a professional in most chicken illnesses so my input is not amazing info, but assuming after this amount of time, other symptoms would be showing) I hope you are all safe and well nothing major!

(I will reply to your post on that other thread we were chatting on, as soon as I can, I am about to leave so I can’t write a real long post quite yet! Excited/nervous to see what you said! Lol)

No rush at all, I know I bombarded you!

I'm treating for cocci in case, but doubtful that's the issue. Thanks for your concern. This happened once before, few months back, and I treated them w/Corid but I only ever saw a couple sporadic weird poops. More likely it might be threadworms (heard they can cause bleeding)? So I'll be deworming soon, too... But as of now, they are fine, and any poops since have been normal. I need to just take a break from looking at their poop (soon I'll start seeing it every time I close my eyes).

I didn’t consider worms bc you said you dewormed them several times but maybe that is the case? I wouldn’t know since my Angel flock has gone 4 years with no worms or ever been dewormed (I never remember to but i will soon)

Well I guess the original deworming didn't work. Found this today.... Roundworms?:

Thank you for the assurance. I was getting sick of the pattern of tailspins their weird poops would trigger--always followed by tons of research, desperate BYC posts, treatments, and then inconclusive results. Meanwhile they're all acting fine and I'm being a crazy helicopter chicken mom. Eventually I was like, do I really need to panic every time? Maybe other people have experienced this?

I am literally sitting in my pen right now because of the same thing! Lmao Normal poops in the coop but yesterday is looked like tissue in the poop scared the daylights out of me but totally normal today and always a weird squirrel around 9:30. So im starting to think this is normal. Ugh just love em so much!
