[GamingGopher]

Hello, I have three 10 week old supposed cockerels and I woke up this morning to see a white poo with some stringy worm type things in there. Is this worms?? Please let me know!

You can deworm them using Safeguard or Valbazen and treat them for Coccidiosis as well.

Is it very hot where you live? Do they have enough deep shade and ample ventilation in their coop?

What are you feeding?

There are no worms in the feces. Ensure your birds have plenty of cool fresh water to drink.

We are in the UK it is not hot. We are feeding them growers pellets and occasional veggie treats. They have a decent amount of shade in their coop and in their run. Just never seen this white stall before. We have given them garlic in their feed which they love and ACV in the freshwater. Any idea what is causing it. Many thanks

How often do you add ACV to their water? I would give ACV only once per week max. as it can interfere with the calcium uptake if given too often.

You can stop the garlic and see if the droppings get back to normal.
