Hey all, I have 6 pullets between the ages of 6-10 weeks and just noticed this yellow foamy stool. I don’t think it looks like a cecal poop, and they are being fed Putin’s medicated starter/grower food. Can anyone recommend a course of treatment?

Where are you located and what's your weather been like?
How are the birds acting? Eating/drinking/active?
I am in upstate NY and we’ve had a bunch of hot days followed by the last two cool, rainy ones. The 6 of them are all very active and growing, and there’s really no other indication that they’re sick, but I’ve never seen this before.

Hot weather makes for loose poop.

I would just keep watch on them. They are quite young, it's possible for them to have worms, but it looks like cecal poop in hot weather to me.
Getting a fecal float to see if worms are an issue is a good idea.
