Help! Rooster has red feet

[MasterChief2988]

After coming from vacation I have noticed a few changes with my pet rooster
1# he only eats his feed (used to eat almost everything)
2# his feet are very red
I put 1ml of ACV in his drinking water and feed him only pellets
during morning he roams my varanda (made of tiles)
and sleeps in his cage at night (over a cloth and plastic bag in a metal cage)
Note - he regularly has green diahreah and green poop
THE MAIN ABNORMALITY IS HIS FEET

Red coloring in feet and legs can be perfectly normal in sexually mature chickens. It is more obvious in certain breeds with lighter colored legs. What type of feed do you give him—layer feed pellets, or flock raiser, or other? If you only have him, I would not use layer pellets, but switch to an all flock or flock raiser feed, since layer has too much calcium for roosters. Too much calcium can cause gout in birds who don’t need it for laying eggs.

What part of the world are you located?
Do you have a photo of bag of his feed - the nutritional analysis?

I agree, often times a red flush of the feet/legs indicates hormones. Look at the bottom of his feet, just to make sure there are no scabs or sores.

You mention that he regularly has green diarrhea and green poop. I've circled some poop in your photo, is that what he normally eliminates? If it is, can you take a sample to your vet for testing?

 

[MasterChief2988]

yes , a vet provided me with antibiotics but even after completing the course his diahhrea returned.
when i restrict him to only feed ,his green color fades a little , he rarely has deep brown firm poop.
In bangladesh there is no proper chicken vet to go to , the vet I found only gave me general antibiotics and saline for poultry and cattle.
any natural remedies / feeding plans
I give him 24/7 access to ACV included water and Feed.
Give him baths in a month or two.
I try to take him down stairs weekly for him to eat some dirt and leaves (although he as less interest in going downstairs nowdays)

Do you know what breed he is?
What's the protein and calcium content of his feed?

You may want to offer him some egg or fish a couple of days a week in addition to his normal feed to increase his protein intake.

What was the vet trying to treat with antibiotics? Did your rooster have an infection?

I will occasionally mix a spoonful of yogurt into my chickens’ feed and add a little water, just to give them probiotics about twice a week. That might help since her was on antibiotics recently. Were they given for his feet or his diarrhea?

 

[MasterChief2988]

no, a long time ago he had a cold and couldnt talk, biotics helped
