Very Watery Diarrhea

[honeydoll]

Ok, this isn't really an emergency; I don't think. But my chickens (7 in all) ate a whole half of watermelon yesterday (not the rine) and now have very watery diarrhea. Will they be ok? I can only assume it was the watermelon that gave them the diarrhea but they do free range. I am a little concerned and want to keep them healthy. Should I do anything extra for them? They are acting ok, eating, drinking but my rooster is a little more cocky today and spunky too. Is he high on watermelon???(haha)

Sorry forget to add I have red sex linked chickens, I think. Pine mulch in the coop. Also cornich x are in coop too.

I did the same thing today except I gave them a whole watermelon. I wouldn't be worried because a chicken passes its urine and poop through the same place and since watermelon is very watery is looks like it has diarrhea.

you can give them yogurt for a couple days . that will regulate them! Just get plain and sprinkle some food on top. They will love it
