So I recently gave my flock of 9 some zucchini as a treat, Thursday evening. The garden here is finished and we weren’t going to eat them, but they were perfect and fresh .
They don’t get a lot of treats, if they do it’s scratch and peck seeds and fruit mix.
They eat kalmbach 17% layer crumbles daily
Fresh clean water daily.
I noticed after they had the zucchini- they all had watery poops! Thursday afternoon and Friday morning.
Most resolved after a day and a half to two days.
One hen, 7/8 month old EE BLANCHE, was lethargic by Saturday morning and super pale comb sleeping in the run not eating. I gave her poultry cell by mouth and some scrambled egg. Also gave the whole flock electrolytes.
Saturday afternoon she laid her egg and was herself again.
Sunday she got up like nothing was ever wrong . Sunday midday she went pale again and was standing in the cooling pond all afternoon. She was drinking plenty but stopped eating completely.
Her last poop Sunday night was clear . The coop under her roost this morning ( Monday) was clear/yellow/ and little green solids.
But she looked fine- red comb and came down to eat/drink.
I isolated her and gave her more poultry cell by mouth and scrambled eggs .
Her poops are attached . She laid Friday, Saturday, no egg Sunday , fairy egg this morning and normal egg this afternoon. She looks perfectly healthy- except her poops. Her last poop at bedtime tonight was solid with some yellowish urates . I’m just so worried
Vet cant see her until Wednesday this week for exam and fecal test
