Found green poop in the coop

Safeguard is used sometimes to treat sick kittens and puppies when they have giardia, I think... It really is a *very* safe wormer.

Agree. I consider wormers to be much less of a danger to my birds and other animals then a worm infestation.

Can't argue with that

Well it seems like this type of poop happens often. There are a lot of forum threads about this symptom and no one knows what causes it. But it's usually fatal and it has something to do with the digestive system.

Bright green poop can have many causes and many times it can be treated with proper antibiotics *and* proper supportive care, but it does require having supplies on hand.

I read a lot of conflicting statements with knowing when to use antibiotics versus probiotics.

From vets, properly documented studies or forums?
