I started feeding my flock and one separate indoor chick fermented feed. It has pepper seeds, cayenne, turmeric, garden oregano, papaya seeds, and fennel. I’ve fed them this before for a while without problem. The food does not become red when mixed.
Now my chick and one hen that I know of are pooping red. The hen’s in particular is bright red all around. Last time she got coccidis her face was always white and the poop looked a little different.
Her coccidis poop:
This poop (there were four):
Sorry bad photo quality, but it’s like a crayon red in the sunlight. It’s also not liquid.
My chick seems alright. It’s stool is redish brown, but still has enough bright red for me to notice. However, it’s inconsistent, and sometimes it is okay.
I’m worried I’m burning my hen’s crop with all that pepper and cayenne. It hasn’t been more than the usual amount and this is only day two of the ferment.
