One thing I cannot find anything about is orange runny poops. I picked up Corid today because I am guessing everyone will tell me treat for Coccidiosis. Some of my chicks were vaccinated for it. It is only with one bird and it started after I gave them a probiotic in their water. That was now almost three weeks and it hasn’t changed. None of the other birds are doing it. The bird is 9 weeks old and seems perfectly healthy. I let them free range for some time every day in my own yard only and I do keep the dog mess picked up as much as possible. Any thoughts? Tomorrow evening I plan on cleaning everything out to be fresh. I can isolate her if necessary. Thanks!!!

Byw, she is the Easter Egger, eating and drinking, acting fine, looks totally healthy, no changes at all but the poops and I use shavings for bedding in the coop but I am switching to hemp in the new coop. Thanks!!!
 
I am going to get some. I don’t carry my phone in the coop much. 😂. Thanks! She actually pooped this am 3/4 normal and a little orange. Hoping this is a change for the better.
Hi. Have the exact concern and did my own post. Someone mentioned it could be a cecal poop. I found a good post and info right here on it. Learned something new! I think it may be and I am going to change out mines diet to something a bit more palatable. I opened a different brand of food I was saving until I ran out of what have now and was shocked at how large and hard their current pellets are. Made me suspect the food is crap and their bodies are treating it as such in a cecal poop. Good luck to you!
