I just noticed that there is some runny mustard colour poop in my chicken house, i'm not sure if this could be an indicator of worms or another illness?

I have not noticed any other symptoms though.

The odd thing is that i brought them 3 to 4 weeks ago and they apparently came medicated.

I would really appreciate any help or advice on this.
 
They are pullets but im not sure exactly how old.

I feed them layers pellets, mixed corn and have recently given them live maggots.

I can get a pic of the poo but im not sure which bird.

The farmers website who i brought them from said they had been wormed.
 
The color of poo could just be that something didn’t agree.
Keep an eye out to see if it continues.
Watch behavior and make sure they have plenty of fresh water.
 
Thanks, they have plenty of water and they are acting normal so i'll just keep an eye on them 😏
 
If that’s the only symptom then i wouldn’t worry, try and get a pic but if not don’t worry. Hens do tend to do runny poos about twice a day, can’t remember the reason now but someone once told me that. I’ll try and find the link to a chart i found, it’s very useful and will tell you if the poo is normal or not if you don’t have a pic of it.
