What does this poop mean?

[katelk]

One of my girls has been having green poops for awhile. The poops are totally normal, not watery or anything, but they have a significant green tint. The white cap is not tinted. The last time they got any green treats was a couple of weeks ago. Eating normal and no odd behaviors. Any ideas?

Do they each much grass?

It may be a worm problem, so I recommend worming your chooks, this should be done about every 6 months. But if your girls are wormed and non-lethargic then she should be fine. Just keep an eye on her, how long has being pooping like this? Is it a significantly green?

Ok I was wondering if maybe worms could cause this. I was planning on worming them for the first time on Saturday when I had time to wrangle them all. She is less than a year old. I am under the impression that Valbazen is a good first time wormer.
If she is having green poop due to worms, does that mean they are really bad or what?

Simply buy a poultry wormer, make sure it is wide range.

If she does have worms and green poop is a symptom, then yes, it means the worms are in significant numbers and need serious treatment. If the green poop goes away after worming, then thats a good sign. Be sure to worm your whole flock. If nothing improves, consider changes their diet of grains, what do they eat? (pellets, grain, seed, sorghum free)
