Hello Everyone,
I have a perplexing problem. I've been raising chickens since I was 10 and I'm quite a bit older now, (well not that old) and have never seen this. My less than 2 year old Golden Comet starting laying shell-less eggs around a month ago.
She is getting oyster shell, and has always had Purina (probiotic/prebiotic formula) 16%, calcium fortified-pellet layer feed, is in a large airy coop with 3 other Golden's all the same age (that do not have this problem). She gets weeds, table scraps, and is allowed to roam our yard at times. Her butt looks fine, but a bit of white trails on her bottom.
Do you think this is some type of infection, if so, what do you recommend I dose her with?
Thank you,
"Sam"
