Runny and white poop. Help please

[RGPJ]

One of my hens is very quiet this Morning and wasn't keen to come out the coop this Morning. I have noticed she has runny poop too and at least one is very white.

I gave them a little natural yoghurt and garlic yesterday and a little scrambled egg the day before (i have one going through a moult so wanted to boost the protein) so I am wondering if it is probably just a case of over indulgence or something more I should worry about?

Is there something I can give her to help her stomach or best to leave it be and just keep an eye on her? I have left out only their basic layers feed and two drinkers out (one plain water and one water with apple cider vinegar)

Thank you for any help and advice

Hey @RGPJ thanks for joining the forum! I'd keep an eye on her and see how she progresses. A little runny poo isn't a huge deal but it could turn into something more serious of course.
Please keep us updated on her progress!

I would just keep an eye on her, as you can have a hen that looks as though it wants to die, and next day she is running around happy as can be. They have "off" days just like us

Runny poo could just be something she has eaten. i would just carry on as normal, no need to try any remedies at the moment

There used to be an invaluable post pinned to the top of this forum, containing lots of pictures of what constitutes "normal" for chicken poo. It covers a huge variety!! Perhaps Josh can reinstate it?

I think it brought more visitors to the forum than any other thread!

I hope your hen soon perks up.
