Does DE use 4 days ago have anything to do w/ bloody poo?

[card5640]

My chickens have all been healthy for 2 yrs and yesterday I noticed boody poo and one hen had been picked at w/ now a bare spot on neck. I have the 2 bloody pooers confined apart and doing the sulmet treatment, and blue kote. 4 days ago a sprinkled a bit of DE in their run due to it being so wet lately and gross.

Did you use food grade DE? If so, then it is highly unlikely. I can't offer anymore answers than that, though. Sorry.

Yes I was told it was food grade...hoping it was, I got it at Blue Seal and feed. Im hoping my 6 meat birds ( 8 days old) dont get it. Im taking all precautions.
