The reason why chickens have black loose stools

When raising poultry, you often encounter chickens with black loose stools. This may be caused by a variety of reasons. Here are some possible reasons:

  • Abnormal drinking water: If the drinking water contains too much metal elements such as iron, copper, manganese, or if the water quality is seriously polluted, it will cause the chickens to produce black loose feces.
  • Feed problem: If the feed eaten by chickens contains too much dye or moldy feed, it may also cause black loose feces.
  • Intestinal infection: If the chicken's intestines are infected by bacteria, viruses, etc., it will cause abnormalities in the chicken's digestive system, leading to the production of black, loose feces.

How to deal with black loose feces in chickens

If you find that your chickens are pulling black, loose stools, you should take the following measures in time:

  • Check drinking water: confirm whether the drinking water is clean. If any problems are found in the water quality, replace it with a clean water source immediately to avoid excessive metal elements.
  • Check the feed: Carefully check the feed used to ensure that there is no excessive dye and moldy feed. If there is any problem, it should be replaced in time.
  • Hygiene of breeding environment: Keep the breeding environment clean and hygienic, clean up feces and debris regularly to prevent infection.
  • Treatment of intestinal infection: If the chicken is diagnosed with intestinal infection, consult a veterinarian for appropriate treatment and use medication as prescribed by the doctor.
