Hello I'm kinda new to this website and I have a bunch of chickens that are super thin. I don't have any idea what wrong with them all they do is eat and drink I have took the to the vet and they don't what's wrong with them. Nothing is showing up in there poop. I've treated them with everything I know PLEASE HELP

Sounds like it might be worms or something else (false negatives are possible on the fecal float test), but how old are your chickens?

Also have you treated the coop for mites? Mites can hide in the coop and come out at night, draining your chickens and eventually killing them. Also it is good to look on the chickens for mites/lice and treat if necessary (retreat at 7 days for mites and 14 days for lice).

Also what are you feeding?

Worms seem to be the most likely cause. I'd get a wormer, such as Valbazen or SafeGuard. Both of these dewormers are broad-spectrum, and should get rid of most worms. The Worminator (http://www.twincitypoultrysupplies.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=584) is another good product. I myself use it, and have had no problems with worms.

Good luck, and hope this helps!

What have you been treating them with? Do they have any otherf symptoms other than being thin?
