Yellow Diarrhea Problem. Please Reply.

I have in total 17 Birds......Zero ill Birds....Never had a Sick bird other than a respiratory thing this summer.........I never ever look at the poop......Chickens poop crazy everyday........



Cheers!


One can tell a lot from looking at poop. This hen has abnormal poop and is losing weight. Need to see poop pictures.

OK. So I just weighed her and she had diarrhea which was like mucus and was definitely not solid. It was really really watery. She is now at 4.2 pounds. This is really worrying. Is there any food which will help me regain her weight? I cut off her feathers which had diarrhea attached. We also washed her vent with warm water. Should I quarantine her? I have a dog cage.
Your hen is sick, that is obvious, but hard to say what it is. At his point it would be best to keep her indoors where you can monitor exactly how much food and water she's getting. -Kathy
 
What do you mean when saying yellow stream.Like this? The poop in the pic is called cecal poop which is completely normal.

Absolutely NOT a normal poop... if yours are like that, then I suggest getting a fecal done to determine why...
That poop is *not* normal! Cecal poops should be creamy and without bubbles. Poop like that is usually coccidiosis or worms. -Kathy
X2 I saw those before I deworming my flock... all cleared up now!

Agree...
 
I did. If it was crop then why is she losing weight constantly . 0.6 pounds!! look at graph
 
Broody poop is about the only stink competition to cecal poops, lol... and they're *usually* darker... anything yellow or yellowish and especially foamy is a red flag to me...
