Donna C Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 My ex-batts are doing really well. Eating,drinking ,laying etc but one still has diarrhea .although she is not unwell was just wondering how to stop it. Am using a tonic in their water and have on only had them 3 weeks. Is it too early to worm? Got to say am loving my new girls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C&T Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Personally, I would worm. Never too early! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs_B Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 My chickens had diarrhoea when they had worms (after a couple of weeks after getting them!) as well as having horrid poos when I gave them fruit everyday...now they get fruit now and then and their poos are much 'better'! I would definitely worm your chooks! x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LottyJ1 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 One of my first ex-batts had diarrhoea for a few weeks after collection - I think it was stress and change in diet/environment. It did clear up and wasn't anything bad but I would worm in case to be safe. Congrats on saving some lovely ladies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
