Hi, thanks for using PetCoach. In order to help, a little more information may allow us to guide you better. How old is the chicken? What is she eating? What is her environment? Is she inside or outside? The coloration of stool can change depending on what the bird is eating or sometimes due to parasites or illness. This website might give you a little bit more info https://the-chicken-chick.com/whats-scoop-on-chicken-poop-digestive/ But please feel free to repost your question, with a little more information on how long this is been going on, if the Bird is acting normally and eating well, and possibly some pictures of the chicken and her stool.
