gareth Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Hi OK here goes: 1)Only have one issue currently and that is one or more of my Bantams (three Pekin Frizzles and a Duccle) has runny poo. Is this ok should I just monitor and not worry about it? FYI I have not been feeding loads of veg recently just layers pellets and some corn as a treat ecery now and again. Oh and some Chicken spice to keep healthy 2) I used to have some chickens and one of them got a runny bum etc and there was a lot of smelly white poo not the normal type. Bum discharged a lot almost seemed like egg white and stoppped laying. I dont have this as a issue but while im asking does anyone know reason and cure encase it happens with my latest hens? 3) I have read somewhere that somesort of Garlic Powder is used to reduce smell etc are there other benefits for the chickens them selves? Thanks Gareth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Have the hens been wormed? If not, Id give them a course of Flubenvet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennett Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 SJP - what a great website, i though one of my hens was sick but after looking apparently there is nothing wrong with her! one less hen to worry about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
