Isn't that sweet? so he's not my big man. He's still a handsom roo. I tried to google it but none of the poops are really looking like or describing his. It's almost like neon yellow. And doesn't change color when it dries up. It stays yellow. No whitish streaks. Nothing. I am beginning to bet on worms but I haven't seen any.

puppy poo is that way when they have parvo or coccidia

I found this though. Sounds like it. But lots of other things cause these too. But mine haven't been wormed in like 8 months.

Here is a pic of his poop from last night. But today it is completely that yellow green color throughout no brown or black or white. Solid color and consistency of SNOT but slightly runnier. Yucky. It doesn't really smell bad. I mean no more than normal chicken doos.

His poop ain't exactly like that. I've had a puppy with parvo am it was the worst experience ever. Lots of bloody diarhea. she survived thank God. Then had an outbreak of coccidia in baby chicks at our old house last year. We lost 30 chicks due to coccidia. Even after preventative and treatment. that was second worst experience ever. Was having one or two die everyday. The chickens I have now were the survivors from that outbreak.

Did You know cats carry coccidia?

Did You know cats carry coccidia?

All animals carry their own species specific coccidia. Dogs, goats, cows, etc.
Small numbers of coccidia in an animal are not an issue, but in large amounts they can kill. Some exposure is necessary to build immunity. Medicated feed contains a coccidiastat that gradually gives immunity but I have never used it and just exposed my chicks to dirt a little at a time with many outings before they move outside.
I have been very lucky to not have any outbreaks though I was suspicious about one chicken who died right after days of rain last year which apparently is coccidia breeding ground. She had the weird poop too.
