Can fermented 3 scratch grain cause vent gleet? Has anyone had this sort of issue? I thought fermented feed was healthy for chickens?

It is all a matter of opinion on whether fermented feeds are better. If it isn't done correctly it can be deadly, and quite a few people believe even if it's done correctly it's not a good diet for chickens. You will get lots of opinions.

Vent gleen is a fungal problem I believe. Birds can get white runny poop without it being vent gleen.

If you wonder if it's the FF, stop feeding it and feed dry feed and see if they improve after a week or so. Could be they are getting too much moisture in their diet too.
