None of mine have died. The coccidiosis confirmation was done from a vet, fecal float.

Hello all! I don't know if it is something to do with the weather this year or this batch of chicks we got but we have had a ROUGH 2024 with an intense battle of Coccidiosis in our flock of 6. So much so that we have gone to the vet and got a sulfa medication but it seems to just keep coming...

Started treatment today just because that’s all I could think of! I’ve never seen the panting be apart of it though before.

It’s 75 degrees, 62 percent humidity. My 10 week old girl has been panting constantly for 2 days and lays down any chance she gets. This is her droppings. Any ideas what to do?

I have now been dealing with coccidiosis for over 2 months. I just need a moment to rant, it’s taken all the fun out of owning chickens for me. We’ve done the severe dose in the water, orally by weight etc. had a few weeks of everyone seeming okay then one presenting new symptoms. Took that...

We had a bad outbreak in the brooder a few weeks ago. Treated the flock, everyone made it. I am starting to notice one his looking a little lethargic and I remember hearing about retreating again. Do you do the severe dose or something else? Thank you!

Going on 5 days my 8 week old pullet constantly is stopping and shutting her eyes. Eating and drinking normally. A few members of the flock a few weeks ago had cocsidiosis. No watering eyes and no respiratory sounds either. Does this poop look odd with the bubbles? Looking for suggestions in...

I am hopeful! Because it’s “sister” is not 😂

Depending on the mix, can waddles be forming on a hen around this age? I am not seeing any points to saddle feathers when I comb my hands through. The copper coloring is not getting any darker on the back, which I know is another indicator of rooster.

Thank you I will addd to water

I know she has the americuna but I am so curious what she is mixed with! She is stunning! Any guesses?

Yes I have, everything completely normal

I have an 8 week old pullet that any chance she gets she is closing her eyes. Still eating and drinking but definitely acting a lot different than her normal. Poop looks normal, checked for bugs. Any ideas? Should I start corid as a preventative?
