Hello David We need a bit more information, then maybe one of the health experts can help out. Personally I don't know about chicken poop, but I know I've seen all sorts of colors in it, usually dependent upon what they've eaten. If they eat mullberries, I see purple poop for days LOL. Answer these, please, and I'll tag a few folks who might know:
Where are you located?
What kind of food are you giving them? Also treats, etc.
How old are they?
How much area do they roam about? Just their run, or do they free-range?

Can you get a picture of the yellow poop? Colors can vary, but there could be infection, liver problems, or it could be a normal yellow cecal poop.

I live in Maine we give them crushed up oyster shells treats and still feed baby food 23 about weeks old they live in their coop and run but we let them out In morning to roam I think maybe cause to much protein

Thank you for answering my questions. It doesn't sound like anything is amiss, but we can't see what they eat when they're ranging, and we can't see what their poop actually looks like. A photo would help a bunch, if you can post one, please.

Chickens can live just fine on chick starter feed, so that's fine. I'm no expert, but during fall molt I feed my chickens game bird grower/finisher feed that's about 22% protein, and there are no ill effects from it and their poop isn't yellow. I also give oyster shell as free-choice, and sometimes food scraps and scratch grains.

We really do need to see a picture, though.

Chick feed is 20%, and is fine. Many use flock raiser which is almost identical, for their whole flock. Do you know how to recognize a cecal poop? That can be yellow or other colors. A picture of what you are seeing may help.
