My chickens have been having water poop the past few days, from what I've read it's from them drinking/eating more watery treats & the heat. It has been warmer & I started giving them yogurt as I notice less runny poop, ACV is added to their water...So I'm relieved now. I read your post, thought I'd mention PDZ for your Poop Board. Read about it on this site, it works GREAT! Check it out on the internet and this site, it's natural and easy clean. I use PDZ & some DE to clean the floors of my chicken house, thought I'd pass it on...Hiya, I hoped too that if she isn't showing any signs of being sick that maybe it wasn't too much to worry about. I read about them getting an egg stuck & didn't know if something like that could be going on. I really don't know what they symptoms are if that should happen. I had been using shavings but they wouldn't leave them in the nesting box, they would scrape them all out till the boxes were bare so I put in straw & they seemed to leave that in there. I use shavings on their poop board. I do keep the straw cleaned out every 2-3 days, I put new in. They have some straw in their run in places but we also keep that cleaned up regularly too especially after a rain. I look at her vent regularly too to make sure that the poo isn't getting stuck around it & it has been fine so far. Only the one is having this issue so I kinda assumed it wasn't anything too contagious since Gracie poos OK. Thanks.
