Don't feel too bad! I did the exact same thing you're doing. Stop feeding as much scratch, mealworms, and other treats- this dilutes the nutrients that the birds need.

I'm going for Fecal Float Test .Yes, probably E.coli, or in young chickens, it could be coccidiosis. It is best to get a fecal float to make sure.
