Pullet with poopy butt and....

does she get any other treats besides scratch maybe she got something she shouldn't have free ranging or too much of something
I gave my entire flock Diarrhea at the beginning of the summer too much watermelon

Here's a very important question. When did she last lay an egg? Was she pretty regular at laying before this?

 

[MarkJr]

They free range sunup to down. They’ve actually had access to the remainder of the garden for the year starting about a week ago. Carrots, peppers, zucchini, lemon cucumber, tomatoes, peppers of various sorts, strawberries, blueberries, grape vines and a few clusters of grapes, asparagus, snap peas, snow peas, green beans, radishes all could be present.

Don’t know when last layed. Abdomen is neither watery type squishy nor firm tonight. Fancy vent bones are curling in. My guess is currently not laying. She’s 30 weeks old.

Human vitamin D?

 

[azygous]

Yes. Ordinary calcium tablets women take to prevent osteoporosis. It comes with D3 already added. I use calcium citrate, but calcium gluconate or carbonate will work.

Pop the whole pill right into her beak. It will go down easily.

I’ve also had counter peristalsis evidence from eggs. Literally occurred to me. Been a couple weeks since I’ve seen a membrane wrapped egg, but I’m pretty sure it’s this pullet.

@aart What happens when this becomes an issue?

@MarkJr what do you mean by counter peristalsis evidence, please? This is a new term to me, thanks.

That could be it her digestive system might not be able to handle it you know the saying Too much of a good thing is not always a good thing

There isn’t any fruits and veggies left. Just plants. If this makes sense.
