I just got (about a week ago) 2 chickens at a traders fair who are supposedly approx 1 year old. One of them has poo that is runny and an orange/rust color - no sign of worms or blood.......she is also stretching her neck out and opening her mouth with nothing coming out and it's getting worse. The other one seems perfectly healthy?
I think she has something like a yeast infection she needs some medication I would guess E.coli My friend Nathalie Ross told me this on that suject: infection of E. coli (most likely case) then you can try putting some vitamin E in their feed. Vitamin E helps fix E. coli overpopulations. You know what else helps fight E. coli? Guess: b. bifidum. It secrets a substance that E. coli just can't stand. ? you can use a good probiotic once a week. I'd use it in food, not in the water, and keep the water absolutely clean. Keep ther bedding nice and dry, not necessarily always perfectly clean, but good and dry. The test is that if you can grab it and it clumps it's too wet. If it almost sticks together but falls apart if you even move in the least, it's ok. So, use good probiotics, use one that has both the Lactobacilum as well as bifidum for action against possible E. coli and against thrush, and make sure they're not too hot, not too cold, and are eating the correct protein feed. Glenda's help is Natural probiotic wet mash 1/4 cup of crumbles 1/2 cup of milk either sweet, sour, buttermilk 2 tbsp of plain yoguart non flavored feed her this for 7 days keep her on 1 slice of bread milk and yoguart to moisin the bread good can drink the milk feed her this twice a day as only feed for 7 days put 1- 1000 mg soft capsule (cut tip off and put it in the bread mixture twice a day she will get okay if the E.coli is controlled by the vitamin E and natural probiotics. email me by PM for asny other problems
