My small flock, all ages of pet chickens, at times develop diarrhea. (crusts of "BM" on their rears). Anyone know of a cure, cause, or treatment? I have tried moving each bird to separate pen with clean food/water. This does not help.

Add one-half tablespoon of Epsom salt to the affected chicken's feed. You can also feed your diarrhea-afflicted chicken wheat bran moistened with sour milk or buttermilk.

There are some ways to help that are covered in the links above. I would never use the kerosene that was mentioned in the Almanac link.
