Franki Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 Found this brilliant site (link below), which shows pics of chicken poos, so you can see what's normal and what's not. Great for me as I'm such a novice. Have been panicking that Bernie was ill, due to runny poos. But it would seem it's quite normal. Hooray! http://chat.allotment.org.uk/index.php?topic=17568.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daxigirl Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 That's reasuring as I was thinking of taking Sunday R to the vets regarding her poop. The dog would be proud of the size of some of them in the photos! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franki Posted September 18, 2010 Author Share Posted September 18, 2010 Yeah me too. Have only had them for a week and was panicking that I might have to take them to the emergency vets! I'll still keep an eye on her though, I don't want to be too dismissive about it. It can' be right to keep doing watery poos. They've possibly been eating too many apples from the garden. They both seem fine and alert though, doing normally chickeny things. I have noticed that they're a bit messy on their behinds, is this "normal"?

Sherbet Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 Think it is quite normal, one of mine done a really watery one this morning, she then went to roost on a garden chair and started to 'preen' herself, and cleaned her rear end...it was nice & clean when she finished. I was worried about the different sorts of 'poos' they did but found out that all was normal...the curry ones do smell awful tho! lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franki Posted September 18, 2010 Author Share Posted September 18, 2010 Can't wait for one of those! Thanks for all your responses. It's good to talk to others, I'm like a panicky first-time mum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
