Hi,
So yesterday we got some chicks and today I was looking in their pen and found some orange liquid like poop, I thought it would disappear. Today we constructed and outside pen for them and I saw Lady give 2 orange poops.
I would include a photo but I haven't figured out yet. PLEASE HELP! We are all worried about her.
Thanks!
 
How old are they and what are you feeding? Do you have a picture that you can post of the droppings? Coccidiosis droppings seen in younger chickens, and older ones with immunity problems, can look orange or have some blood in them. If it keeps up or the chicken looks weak or lethargic, you may want to buy some Corid powder or liquid to put in their water for 7 days. Let me know if you need dosages.

@Eggcessive This is the poop and Lady is above. Lady is the black and white girl. She's around 2 or 3 months

Sorry I forgot they are on chick feed organic
 
How is she acting? The dropping in the pic looks like a cecal dropping. They tend to have one of those shiny, gooey, stinky, cecal poops every 8-10 droppings which can be orange, gold, or dark brown. Here are some links to read with lots of pictures of droppings and possible causes:
