Could this be broody behavior? Need some advice please!

[Astrid]

Can you STAND any more chicken-worry?
I've witnessed three "eliminations" from Minnie-- all just liquid, the first one with a bit of green matter in it. Is it normal for them to have so much liquid coming out the other end? I do think she's drinking a lot, but then again, until today I never really paid much attention to how much they drink.

What's all that liquid? Part of the broody behavior?

Hey Astrid,
Sorry to hear poor Minnie isn't feeling well. I've never had a broody hen so I can't say if these are normal signs or not. Somehow I don't think the diarrhea is normal for a broody. I looked up all the diseases that list diarrhea as a symptom in "The chicken health handbook" and there are many, many, unfortunately. If you're still concerned I would consider posting over in the "emergency" section. The chicken lovers over there might know exactly what you should do.
Good Luck, Jen

Thanks Jen.
I'm going to keep an eye on her this weekend, and beg for help over on the emergencies/diseases board.
