Vomiting, brown water out of her butt, she won't eat, she's listless... the next time I have one of these brilliant ideas, shoot me.
Fontucky calm down I am sure everything will be ok. The vet will most likely give her something that will curb the runs and the vomiting. She will be ok I am sure. Just my guess but it probably was such a quick change to her diet that her system rebeled. She will be ok.

Ah geez! I wish the vet could see her sooner.
The next time you have one of these brilliant ideas, ask me if I would give [whatever it is] to Artie. They seem to have the same wonky stomach. These are just some of the unknowns that have got me *thinking* about feeding Artie raw... but not pursuing it.
I wouldn't dare give my 4 legged wonders a raw diet I would be knee deep in sewage. Just my opinion but I would have second thoughts about raw meat bones and all especially since i had a dog once that got into the garbage and ate chicken bones and ended up with bloody diarreaha he turned out ok but my vet told me to never give a dog chicken bones raw or otherwise they tend to splinter and tear the intestine. I know people who do the raw diet bones and all and i just cringe but I don't say anything because they are so intent on the raw.
Still squirting. EVERY time I make the slightest deviation from the Avoderm, this happens. I froze the drumsticks for the time being and will let her tender system recover before trying again. I can bank on four days of this.
Did you feed it with skin on? That could be why. Try it without skin.
ETA: That shouldn't cause the listlessness.
Also, if the meat was enhanced with any solutions/seasonings, that could be it, too. But the listlessness seems to say it's something else.

About the listlessness -- couldn't that be from all the diarrhea and vomiting? I know when I have an upset stomach and, well, after it's come out both ends, that all I want to do is lie on the couch. I hope that's the case with Nanners.
