What is this poop indicating? Please help

[Magsy]

My 2.5 year old ISA brown has been unwell for what seems like months. A few weeks ago she had sour crop which I treated and seems to have resolved, but now I think she may have vent gleet. I just want to get opinions on what it could be. Have posted photos of her poop from today and will list symptoms below. The whiter/creamy looking poop is more what they’ve been looking like for the past two weeks. The one with more green in it is the first one like that I’ve seen, which she did this morning.

Signs/symptoms I have noticed:
- lethargy, flopped over comb (but still quite vibrant red)
- diarrhea/watery droppings, all of which seem to have the white/creamy stuff in it. Have not seen her do a “healthy” poop for very long (2ish months potentially)
- missing feathers around vent area and some caked on watery/creamy poop. The vent opening itself doesn’t appear red or agitated but looks swollen/the general area looks very bloated and the vent is puckering often
- has not laid an egg in over a month
- not moving much, sitting often
- recently has stopped grazing and drinking water. She will only eat live mealworms which she still goes nuts for so I have been giving her plenty. I’ve been giving her water by syringe from today
- she almost sounds as if she has lost her voice or something. She still tries to make her usual vocalizations but they sound almost whispery and a bit hoarse

It could be a reproductive disorder especially since she hasn’t laid an egg in a while. Let me tag some experts for you because I don’t have any experience with this personally @azygous @Eggcessive

How does her crop feel? Has she lost weight or does she have an enlarged lower belly under the vent? Are other hens picking her feathers around her vent? Have you seen any soft or shell-less eggs in the nest boxes recently. Her dark green dropping is common when they are starving themselves. The yellow urates could be part of that or a reproductive egg laying issue. Isould work on trying to get her to drink some fluids, maybe an electrolyte or Poultry NutriDrench for a day or two, and mix up a bit of mushy wet chicken feed and and a bit of scrambled egg. Check her crop each morning early to make sure it is emptying overnight. Weighing her on a kit hen scale can help to keep track of weight loss.

That poop looks to me like she still has a yeast infection, only now it's all the way down her digestive tract. In this case, miconazole is not as effective as when the yeast is localized to the crop.

I suggest the three-day Epsom salt flush to neutralize the yeast all the way through the system while hosing it out. It does require a small animal tubing kit and the willingness to tube feed the solution two times a day for the full three days.

You can get the tubing kit from Amazon or a local vet. I will provide detailed instructions.
