That's interesting about the corn. I was feeding them Kelley's Lay Pellets before I switched to the Purina, and the problems originally started on that feed. I haven't tried adding any other kinds of grains to the diet, so maybe it would be worth trying some corn.
I'm also hoping some of the diarrhea will clear up after she finishes her molt. She started much later than the other hens and is kind of a hot mess right now.
You said it was almost explosive diarreah, which indicates gas is building up in her intestines. Gas comes from fermentation and fermentation is caused by those synthetic fibers i mentioned above, or rather the synthetic fibers are prone to fermenting more than natural fibers, it's a known side effect.
So maybe her digestive system is a bit sour right now. I dont know the best treatment for that. I know I might give some electrolyte with baking soda. But im not recommending anything other than a 10% good fiber source supplement.
