Sandychick Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Hi, (sorry about the topic!) my chicken Daisy has been doing a lot of runny poo recently. Her fluffy white bum is starting to look grubby too. They have all been dosed with flubenvet, and they have also had diatomacious earth mixed in with their feed, but the problem with Daisy seems to continue. She isn't laying either, but otherwise as healthy and bouncy looking as the others...........does anyone have any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henchanted Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Bokashi bran - great for digestive problems as it has those good bacteria they need. Mine usually have solid poo when I add extra, I add a small amount anyway but extra if she/they are getting a bit loose. Some foods do upset their gut or if its the first time they have had something before they get used to it so also try avoiding treats for a while maybe. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharon1 Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Sometimes they do runny poos because they are hot. My Aruacana who is black and no doubt attracts the sun, has been like this for the past week, eating and drinking well, so i'm not too worried. She has also been flubbed.
