Accepted Answer

Hi there. This usually means a low grade parasitic worm burden- in most chickens they have to have a lot of worms before it makes them ill.

I would thoroughly worm all your chickens with a 7 day in feed course of 'Flubenvet' (fenbendazole). This will eliminate any worms they may have.

Best wishes
