Is this poop concerning?

There's something about the bright coffee-coloured ring in the first one that seems off to me. But the second one is also...kinda diarrheic?

For context, this rooster is on antibiotics (cephalexin) for a skin infection. I'm afraid this could be causing this kind of poop and I wonder how normal this is and if this is a reason to stop the treatment. Can't reach out to the vet until next week.

First poop is a Cecal Poop, second is a fairly normal poop, but the green is a sign he's not eating enough.

Antibiotics mess with humans in a digestive way so I wouldn’t be surprised if they do the same to chickens. Usually this isn’t a reason to quit taking them.

Dang. I can't get him to eat more. His previous "owners" got him used to eat corn. Just corn.

I've been trying to incorporate layer feed in his diet, but he doesn't like it. He only eats a little and moves on.

The vet says he's probably lacking protein. How else could I provide this protein?

I thought bugs/worms but I let him free roam and he's not much into foraging and scratching either?, probably because he spent most of his life in a cage until now? I don't know.

I've never had a chicken so selective with food before (I recently found out he doesn't like cabbage and I was flabbergasted).

try boiled eggs for protein.
