Chicken Seems Sick But We Don't Know What's Wrong

[GMJoyce]

Our Chicken Yasha has been standing separately from the rest of the flock acting lethargic and not engaging with eating or drinking too much.

She seemed to be constipated and did some rather massive poops at first while she was in our indoor area where we're treating her so we thought she was constipated or something and bought some supplements to give her.

But we've noticed she's been having these really weird long snaky poops recently that get stuck coming out of her butt. We're not sure if she's sick or has worms or has eaten something weird in the garden but we have a picture of the poop if it helps. She's had multiple poops like this so it wasn't just a one off it seems. She seemed to be doing better yesterday but is the same again today we feel bad because she seems lonely in her little indoor cage but we aren't sure if she should be around the other chickens.

Any help would be appreciated

What supplements did you get?
I would check to make sure her crop is emptying overnight. Likely she's eaten long strands of fibrous vegetation is having difficulty passing them.
I would give her 1tsp of coconut oil twice a day to see if that helps get things moving. See that she's drinking plenty of water and offer her wet feed. If you feel she needs a treat, then give her some scrambled egg.

If you find that her crop is not emptying this article will help you determine the course of treatment. Let us know what you find out. https://www.backyardchickens.com/ar...w-to-know-which-one-youre-dealing-with.73607/

Do you provide a source of grit (crushed granite) for your birds?
