Peafowl Poop - Normal and Abnormal - Lots of poop pictures

[zazouse]

No that's what I thought first was they have worms I've never wormed before.Yes they are chicken hens & no they are not molting or scared or anything out of the ordinary they are laying well they just have diareah

We use safe guard for goats to worm all our animals here, 1cc per bird for 3 days straight and then repeat in 10 days if they are not on a regular worming schedule

We use Safeguard liquid for goats/cattle or paste for horses at 0.23ml per pound of body weight for five days. That amount will treat almost all worms that birds get. Valbazen is also a good wormer and the Valbazen dose I would use is 0.08ml per pound once and repeat in ten days.

Ok awesome thanks!

Other things that can cause odd poop are bacterial infections, fungal infections and coccidiosis.

[poult]

I don't think its coccidiosis because I think they would have already died.

What it is mean to see some feed in the peafowl poo? Sick bird poo has some in it.

 

[casportpony]

It could be normal, but it can also be a sign of the usual stuff. If it's acting okay, you're probably fine.

Do they have access to grit?

Do they have access to grit?

-Kathy

She looks fine now, is grit mean sand or what?

 

[zazouse]

Grit can be small pebbles like natural aquarium rocks, course sand or granite, that will aid them in their digestion by grinding up grains in the gizzard any time you feed whole foods you should supply grit otherwise food can get backed up from lack of digestion and a bird can get sour crop
