Does Cocci in chicks lead to other health issues when they grow up?

[HappyHippyChick]

I bought some chicks and when I put them in the brooder, I find out they have cocci and some of the chicks are pooping out liquid and bright green poop. I think the green color could indicate something toxic. But, most importantly, I am wondering if there are other health issues when the chickens grow up. I mean, does cocci indicate other health issue because of the cocci. I just bought them this way but I didn't know they had it until I got home.

Bright green diarrhea is not indicative of coccidiosis. It is indicative of excess bile in the stool from food. It can indicate that the bird has not been eating well.
How many weeks old are these chicks? Where did you get them from? Do you currently have a flock and you got them to add to it? If so, have you quarantined them from your flock?
Can you please post pictures of the poop and the birds?

Yes, I agree the green is indicative of something wrong in the diet. I think approximately they are only a few days old. I got from a backyard breeder who states he is a good chicken breeder. I only have the chicks, after 10 years without chickens.

I got corrid but am unsure what dose. But, I was wondering what implications, of cocci in chicks, will it cause any health issues as they get older?

I'm giving Corid powder a teaspoon to a gallon of water. I can't find any sulfadimethoxine under $80. I'm really worried now. The chicks had it before I got them but they are only a few days old. Are there any other ways to treat this? I'm starting to get worried. I just got the chicks yesterday and realized when I got home they had it. Do you think powdered Sulfur could be used to treat them? Or other things? Thanks
