    I need help diagnosing this issue "watery dropping"..

    Okay thank you. I may not be able to do that because we don't have an avian vet where I live. We live in a rural area and no vets in my area will see chickens. Also avian vets can be quite expensive. But thank you for the friendly advice and for your time! 😊❤🐔🥚
