worms?

[sligsy]

Help please!

Got two new chickens last week to add to our four.

One - a white leghorn - has no energy at all, and spent most of yesterday in the nesting box.

I have just been out and taken a photo of it's poo - is this worms?

Any advice would be really great - thanks.

you will need to buy wormer and give it too all of your flock but you should feed them pumkin and garlic because they are both goo wormers (it may be worth keeping her inside

Heat stress can cause poops with excess urates. Here's a poop chart. If they are new birds I would worm them anyway. Continued lethargy and ill thrift may indicate coccidiosis .
