I have a 3 almost 4 week old chick named Butters. I recently determined it is a white leghorn I think rather than the Buff Orpington I thought I was getting. LOL. It has been perching and flying its coop since basically week one. Super sweet but OMG it has the stinkiest poop. I do not think it is cecal poop because 75% of its poops smell like puke. I treated them all for Corrid. No one else has poop with this smell but this chicken. I do not have a weak stomach but man of man his stinks. But then about 25% of the time it is a nice healthy solid poop. This chick eats well, is hyper, (maybe the most hyper) I thought it was a roo BUT since discovering it is not an oprington as I was told I think it could still be a pullet. Any ideas on the stinky poop?
I fed them unmedicated through Corrid treatment. Followed dosing instructions from here as advised by all of you Chicken Whisperers. The one I was actually worried about is completely healthy and thriving. Whatever is wrong with this chicks poop is NOT contagious as they have all been together for 3 to 4 weeks now and this is the only one with this issue. I keep forgetting to take photos but it always looks like cecal poop for 75% of the time. The 25% of the time it is a healthy poop it does not smell. Any idea why?????? Also any ideas or guesses on gender? No pink in the comb at all! Butters is a snuggler and this is the only pic I have with me for now
