How to solve watery poop and diarrhea.

[Wyorp Rock]

Yes she definitely is acting off. This morning her crop was still full, I assume this is the cause to the watery poops? I immediately massaged it with coconut oil, can I massage it any way I want? Or is there a specific way? She also has pin feathers growing on her crop so I do not want her to hurt her. Any videos will be appreciated. Thanks!

Ill get a picture, its like a decent size egg. How do I know if a organ failed? Also, how do I fix that. How long should I massage for? Will it 100% work?

Me too! Im going to wake up really early so I can massage her, how about Epsom soaks? Can they help?

Just re-check the crop first thing in the morning before she's had anything to eat/drink.
If the crop has not emptied, give her 1teaspoon coconut oil chunks twice a day. See if that helps.

Let her with her flock to roam or lounge about as she pleases. Provide her normal feed.

Often a molting bird's crop is a bit slow since they don't eat/drink very well.

I would not give her a soak, she's molting.

Checked again in the morning and her crop emptied, still watery poop although.

Is she eating and drinking a normal amount?

Not the normal amount... Here are pics from the other day, she had watery poops again this morning...

Thats when her poops were O.K in the morning, then she tried to get me with her poop when I was massaging her crop. This was her poop:

@Wyorp Rock What do you think about treating for coccidiosis with Corid?

 

[Wyorp Rock]

Corid won't hurt.

That's Urates which can indicate dehydration.

I'd put her with the flock if she's not getting picked on and watch to see if she's eating/drinking o.k.

She is with the flock now, she has been for a bit. Where do I get Corid, and how do I treat it? I feel like she gets lots of water although. How do I make her drink more?

 

[Wyorp Rock]

If you see her drinking, then she's likely getting enough.

Corid is for Coccidiosis. You can find it at TSC in the cattle section.
Liquid is 2tsp or Powder is 1 1/2tsp per gallon of drinking water given for 5-7days. Likely Coccidiosis is not an issue, she's just feeling poorly due to molting.
