Hi,
My chicken has something in her poop. A few days ago I posted a thread about intestinal lining in my chickens poop. and everyone said it was intestinal lining but this is happening very recent after the other poop. Info about the chickens. Age:20 weeks They are on purina layer feed with some scratch grains. The poop looks kind of mucousy. @coach723 @Eggcessive And only Three are laying and all three are still laying.

It is intestinal shed. It may be normal and nothing to worry about. If you are seeing increased amounts then I would recommend getting a fecal done, that will tell you if you need to worm them, and what to worm for. Some parasites are fairly common, some less so. It does not look like coccidiosis to me. Some vets will do a fecal for chickens, some will not. There are also mail in options:
