One of our golden sex link hens has had terrible diarrhea for three days now. It is very watery with little bits in it. She has had a messy bum as well so we gave her a bath last night and dried her all up and it is better but still has evidence of more diarrhea. This morning I found her hovering over a broken egg on the run floor, and there was only a little piece of a paper thin soft egg shell. I attached some photos, sorry they are so graphic! As we were tucking them in tonight she got on the roost and had another big blowout. I have given her plain yogurt and will mix in some raw apple cider vinegar into their water tomorrow.
She seems to be eating and drinking as normal and running around with the rest of them like nothing is wrong. We haven't been giving them excess treats or anything either. We did see some mites on them and I have treated them with poultry DE (last week), do I need to treat for worms too??
Thank you for any and all suggestions!
