ok, I have a bantam cochin hen(4-5months), who pooped this is morning then was super happy and fapped around like a chick. i dont know what it is.
i do have to note that she was wormed a week ago and is at the moment on corid for normal spring worming sesion.

It looks like intestinal shedding.

What did you worm her with?
Corid is a coccidiostat. It only treats Coccidia which is a protozoa not a worm.

It would be good if you monitored her poop, that's a lot of urates in there too - is there always a lot of white like that or is this a one time thing?

Also what do you feed her?
 
thank you for getting me back with me so fast.
i wormed her low low dose of Valbazen, do i understand that Corid is for coccidiostat.
the white poop was just a one time thing. she pooped a little bit after and before that and was normal as can be.

I'm feeding her Dumor Grower feed with free choose chick/stander grit

Valbazen is a good dewormer. You would repeat that in 10days. Dosage is 0.08ml per pound of weight.

I gottcha! Just wanted to clarify on the Corid, a lot of people do think it's a dewormer, so just making sure:)

I would keep an eye on the poop for a few days. IF it's a one time thing, then I wouldn't worry, but if you continue to see intestinal shedding, then investigate that further.
 
oh good, i forgot about the repeat time, thank you for reminding me. ill add that to my calender

I can understand how someone can get confused by corid, there are lot of conflicting sites that can give mix messages.

Thank you again, i will keep my eyes out but i thought it was intestinal shedding but my father was really worried so i wanted to get a second opinion.
