Lethargic Chicken, Green and White Liquid Poop, not eating or drinking.

[Lidigirl12003]

Can you take some of their poop to your local vet and ask them to do a fecal float test? It should not be too expensive or take very long and he can get results for you even if they are not an avian vet. That way you will know if, for example, your chickens have worms, and if so, what kind. Then if they do, you can treat for what they have, if any. There is no point in guessing and just giving your birds random stuff to try and fix something they may or may not have. And too much garlic can be toxic to chickens so be careful with that. Vinegar also is not proven to do anything for them.

I guess that is where I am at. The closest vet does not test or take chickens, but if I push on I am sure I could find someone. I have never not been able to treat one of our animals. I feel very defeated. Herbal and holistic approach has always worked. Like you said I am guessing and clearly I have not been right lol. Thank you. Was hoping someone else had experienced these symptoms. Regarding garlic I put it twice a week in our water bowls in all the coops and the gals and guys have thrived. Even all the babies. But that has not helped this time. Thank you again for your reply.
