chick with diarrhoea
« on: July 14, 2009, 13:42 »
hi, my chicks are 3 and half weeks old, one of them has loose poo/ diarrhoea, not sure who yet. i have checked all of them and they are clean around the vent. one seems a little wet around the vent area but i have seen her poo and it is normal. i have just moved them to an outside shed with their electric hen. they all seem bright and happy all eating and drinking ok, should i be worried

Mine have the odd loose poo and it is normal (well for my lot).  I did not notice it with batch 1 but batch 2 and 3 all get to about 4-5 weeks and get the odd loose one.  You should worry if you see blood in the poo.

If I get the wrong end of the stick its because I have speed read. Honest.

I have noticed it too with my last 2 lots that are now outside, maybe the variable temps we are having?
