Hi all -
I recently adopted four Golden Sex Link hens from a farmer (friend of a friend). He had been fostering them for a few weeks as his neighbor moved and couldn't bring them with her. We have had them for two weeks and all was fine until yesterday. I found this watery/bloody poop on the poop board from inside the coop yesterday morn, and today I found way more watery poop (no blood) and a partial paper thin egg shell and yolk/whites on the run floor. I know which hen is doing it as her butt is all poopy. We have her a bath last night and she seemed to enjoy it. She is running around and eating just like the rest. Any help or suggestions as what to do?

Ps. I did see a mite on them the other day and I treated the coop and run with DE (for poultry) about 4 days ago. Thank you in advance!! First time chicken owner here, way out of my element
