I've been noticing lately that some of my chickens, including roos, have had diarrhea. You can actually see it on the feathers around the vent. It's dark colored and very watery. I haven't seen any blood in it yet, but one of the roos does look like he has had some bleeding around the vent.
Also several of the pullets are pale. They just don't have the bright combs and wattles like they should. This isn't happening to the roos tho. The roos have very brightly colored combs and wattles like they should.
Any ideas what could be causing this, and how I would go about treating it?
I've tried searching for this in the forums, but it proved to be a much larger task than I'm willing to take on so I started a new thread.
If it helps, they are all Australorps and Sex links.
