‼️Let’s talk about “green p**p” in chickens‼️
I see SO many people panic the second they spot anything green in their flock’s droppings — but not all green p**p is created equal.
👉 THIS is the kind you need to worry about:
(Pic pinned in comments because meta sux)
Thick, slimy, marbled green droppings with a nasty, almost foamy texture (see photo). This isn’t just diet-related—it can be a red flag for coccidiosis, a common and potentially deadly parasitic infection.
💡 What makes it different?
• Not just green—it’s dark + bright green mixed together
• Often mucousy/slimy or bubbly
• May have a strong, foul smell
• Birds may also seem lethargic, fluffed up, or off-feed
🥬 Normal “green p**p” (from grass, veggies, etc.) is usually:
• More uniform in color
• Less slimy
• Still formed (not this swampy mess 😬)
⚠️ If you’re seeing droppings like this:
Don’t wait. Early treatment is key with coccidiosis. Quarantine if needed, keep things clean and dry, and consider treatment options ASAP.
Your chickens rely on you to notice the difference—and catching this early can save lives. 💚🐔
