poop butt

[newwestchick]

I've had chickens who get so poopy I've trimmed their butt feathers :LOL

Most hens will take care of themselves, dust bathe and groom, and others are just gross... If she's acting normally and laying, I wouldn't worry. When she molts she will lose all the poopy feathers and grow in a nice new fluffy butt.

I'm happy to report that after almost 2 week on probiotics it looks like her poop butt is getting better almost unnoticable! I prefer nice fluffy butts over poop butt!

Went out to the coop this morning and the explosive poops are back this time theres some red in it. It was all over the coop. What should I do next? Please help!

Was the red blood or red tisue? If you have a vet near by you should bring in a sample and get it tested for Coccidiosis and or worms. Here's a article on it: https://www.backyardchickens.com/a/coccidiosis-how-to-treat-it
