Hello 
It's my first year having chickens so I'm not sure what is happening to my little lady! My 11 month old White leghorn seems to have a very messy bottom. It is very runny and watery, with some blood mixed in here and there. It is covering all of her butt under her tail. At first I thought she might be egg bound so I bathed and cleaned her up and let her sleep inside for the night. She laid an egg and is laying daily since. It has been 5 days and she seems to be doing everything normal, still happy, roosting, getting along with everyone, and still the first to greet me at the coop door every morning. The only problem is I can't seem to figure out why she is bubbling out runny/white/light brown/ bloody stool. She is also pooping normal poops. Its almost like a discharge that is constantly coming out and making a mess on her. I have researched and found nothing very helpful. Her comb is still a pretty red, no changes in her eyes and legs, and breathing is normal, she has always had kind of a little wheezing noise. I can post a picture if that would be more helpful. I need some advice! Please and Thank you!
