Hello, I have four chicks, who are 3 weeks old on Saturday. Two are Buff Orpingtons, one is a Marsbar and one is a Cream Legbar.
I noticed this morning that there was some bright red blood in their poo- i'm not sure which one as whenever I watch the poo looks fine!
I immediately thought...
Hi guys,
this morning I noticed a very very bloody poop on the ground from one of my two chicks (yes, they sometimes escape in the night.) They seem to be acting completely normal to me.
The only thing I have on hand right now is Poultry Cell, but I read that it's only used after the treatment...
I have a chick with runny, pink stool and another with drooping wings. There are 6 total, 4-5 weeks old, and they were vaccinated at the hatchery for coccid and Marek's. They are getting non-medicated feed and electrolytes + probiotics in water. Per the hatchery's instructions, they have had...
I have 2 possible cases.
1st is a chick in the brooder. She is 3 weeks old. Smaller than other chicks her age, but not vastly different. She was tiny from the start. Is acting a tad less rambunctious but not overly lethargic looking.
2nd is in my coop. Went to clean the poop shelf and it was...
I had four little chicks around the first of may, two americanas and two golden laced wyandottes. I had read before & had done with my previous two chicks to give them a little dirt from our yard to build coccidiosis immunity. I gave some dirt to these chicks as well (although I didnt do it...
Hi all, 2 weeks ago we had our first sign of coccidiosis with our babies (now 6 and 7 weeks old, then 4 and 5) it was the obvious first signs with bloody Poo from one or two chicks, and another one had very mucusy poo. I got corid, I followed 1 tsp to 1 gal dosage for 7 days. Things were cleared...

Hi y’all, I’m new here! I got 4 Amerucanas that are 3 weeks, almost 4 weeks old. I had noticed this strange poop today. It’s the only one I found and first I’ve seen like this.
I’m super worried about Cocci. They did just have strawberries for the first time but idk if this...
Been reading a lot about using medicated feed and corid in waterers, and was curious what everyone's opinions were on this subject?
Medicated chick feed usually contains: 0.0125% amprolium
Corid contains: 9.6% amprolium (example dosage: 2.5ml per quart of water)
Some people say that you can...
Hi! Question, I have a baby chick, about 4 or 5 weeks old. Sibling died last week and had sudden bloody diarrhea. Same day this one showed signs of a bit of blood as well. Been treating with corid since Thursday (so 4.5 days now) he's way more lively since Thursday and this is the poop today...
I have 10 chicks that are 3.5 weeks old. They'll be 1 month old on the 20th. They are all vaccinated for coccidiosis, and we're on medicated starter for just over a week. Since then they've been eating all flock. This morning I noticed quite a few poops with blood in them. Do you think it's...
I have 6 chicks about 2 weeks olds. I got them from Rural King which told me they were vaccinated for coccidiosis. They had all been doing fairly well. Growing, eating, playing, drinking, and pooping normally. I took them outside for a few hours yesterday since it was warm and they seemed to...
On Friday I began noticing a few of our 2 wk old chicks being lethargic and having runny bloody poo. I separated the two that had those symptoms (I ended up separating a third chick the following day bc she began showing those symptoms also). I began corid on all the chicks we have and added a...
Hi! First time chicken tender here. My 4 week old chicks have been doing really well so far and have recently started going outside for a few hrs each day when its warm. Today I noticed a couple diarrhea like droppings off one or two of the birds. Pic doesn’t show the color but its a light...
I have 4 baby chicks not even a week old yet that are eating, drinking and running around. The only thing is they have diarrhea. Is this normal? Should I treat them for coccidiosis? The poo doesn’t seem bloody to me.
Is there any way this could just be intestinal lining shed? I’ve observed the birds all morning, no one is pooping this. They all act good- eating, drinking, playing, preening. They are 9 weeks and haven’t been eating anything except their chick starter (non-medicated) and grass. I have Corid...
I noticed one of my chicks was acting weird and when I picked him up, he shot blood all down my leg which was… neat. So I quarantined him and noticed the rest of my chicks were also pooping blood. I’m assuming it’s coccidiosis and I put corid in their water…
I had corid on hand for just in case...
Hopefully I am positing this in the right place. New to this forum and raising chicks. We picked up 12 chicks from our local farm supply store on Wednesday - I believe they’re 11/12 days old now. They are all vaccinated for Mareks and coccidiosis. Most are thriving - one of them seems a little...
is there a coccidiosis ground treatment for chickens coops runs we had a bad outbreak last summer. People all around here lost chicks. I lost 8 myself. I been giving all my ckicks corid ever scene to be safe but I would like to eradicated from my ground.
Hi everyone - I'm brand new to all of this and we got some baby chicks only a few days ago. They all currently ranging in ages between 4 or 5 days old and about 10 days old. They were all fine and active, but one of the youngest ones (about 5 days old now) suddenly rapidly declined in the last...
