Cracked corn is not nutritional. It has little nutritional value to it. You might consider switching to a whole balanced feed for your birds. You will help them out a lot if you start feeding a balanced chicken feed. A small amount of corn is alright as a treat as well as table scraps IN MODERATION. But not as a whole diet. You can run into many problems as obesity, vitamin defiency, organ trouble ect. If they are not kept on a more balanced diet. I learned the hard way how important nutrition is for birds when half my flock came down with a vitamin defiency. And I was feeding a store bought layer feed and scratch. I now switched over to a all organic feed and make sure and offer vitamins, probotics, and I limit treats.i cut out the scratch completely. Her dierhea could be a result of diet. You might also consider adding a good probotic.it to add beneficial bacteria into her system to help with the dierhea. Probotics have been a big help when my girls had dierhea. It's cured it right up. So if she were mine, I would try offering a more nutritious feed and try the probotics in her water and see if her dierhea clears up. I think that will really help. I wish you the very best and do hope this post is helpful to you. Good luck and God bless.
