coccidiosis

I just got two easter egger chicks and they are two days old today. I noticed that one has some blood in her poop. Does anyone know what it could be? Is it coccidiosis? Could they just be some weird poops because she's so young? She hasn't really been eating yet and her sister has normal poop...

Hi there, long time follower of the forum and first time posting. I have been searching and searching for similar situations to what's going on with our chicks but seem to be getting all kinds of results. Some background, we have 2 older hens that are around 5 years old and aren't displaying any...

This is actually day 2 of my BR pullet standing like a penguin. Yesterday it was very off/ on so I wasn’t sure if I was imagining things. Today I’m sure. So here’s the deal- this is about the end of the first week of the 4 pullets being outside in the run all day. They are segregated from the...

For just over a week, my 5-week-old Giant Cochin chick has had very watery poops; before this, her poops were normal. Five days ago, I began Corid treatment for coccidiosis as a precaution, in addition to fresh Purina medicated feed which they’ve been eating since week one. Just today, my Golden...

Hi, my Aracuana pullet Lady Featherflower is sick and I can’t work out what medicines to give her because her symptoms are confusing. :/ Background: She’s in a covered run with 10 others, divided into 4 prefab coops with added ventilation panels. Poop trays are inspected and cleaned every day...

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 there, My Silkie rooster (“Poof daddy”) has fallen ill again for some reason! The flock just recovered for coccidiosis. Poof daddy was hit hard and was in the chicken hospital (our house) for 4 days. He made a recovery. Two days ago I noticed him being lethargic and hunched over again...

Im treating my whole flock for coccidiosis due to a chick having it that im brooding indoors, and this includes 2 grown outdoor hens. Im not a huge fan of eggs and only one is laying right now so i feed their eggs back, usually 3 eggs once a week. So heres the big question: Is there enough...

Hi there, My year old laying Silkie hen expelled a large blood clot yesterday so I started the whole flock on Amperol for possible coccidiosis. This morning, it appears the hen had pushed out her bowel? Does this look like a prolapse and should I gently push it back in??

Noticed some bloody/mucus poop under one of my chickens when I closed them in tonight. Assuming it’s cocci and going to start the whole flock on corid, but wondering others opinions and if it could be anything else.

I've been treating my pullet with the powdered corid in her drinking water for a week and it is definitely helping her and she's slowly getting better but I want to just knock this thing out since she got pretty bad before i could get my hands on some corid....so I have some toltrazuril...

My chicks are now about 6 weeks old and I’ve been letting them free range during the day and bring them inside at night since we had a bit of a warm spell. It looks as though a couple of chicks are beginning to have bloody stools and act lethargic. I’ve been feeding them medicated starter with...

Hi all, I'm afraid we're going to lose one of our original hens. This morning, she wouldn't come out of the coop with the rest. She was laying down, legs not working, BEET red eyes (they're usually yellow/orange). We brought her inside and laid her in the bathtub. This is when we noticed that...

I've started to notice some really smelly, foamy specimens from my hens the last few days. Does this look like coccidiosis?

I have a two year old hen that has become somewhat weak and has had diarrhea for over a month. I noticed in late summer that she would sometimes lose her balance slightly, not really fall but she would rest on her hocks at times. She still walks ok, albeit somewhat slowly, but then I realized...

A month ago I hatched some chicks and when I spoke to a vet recently, he said it wouldn’t be a bad idea to give them amprolium. The feed I use is unmediated. I’ve used powder Corid in their water in the past, but I can’t remember the dosage to use. If anyone could tell me how much of the powder...

When scooping poop from the coop this morning, I noticed two poops had gelatinous/stringy red bits in it resembling blood. Should I go ahead and treat for coccidiosis? All the poops in the run looked normal and all my hens are acting bright, eating, drinking, etc. My hens are all 3.5 y/o; no...

I’m first time owner of small flock of 7, I think my rooster might have coccidiosis. My rooster is looking really weak lately, he’s not really lethargic but he looks very weak, he can barely support his weight, his legs are shaking, walks around like drunk, little confused and has very watery...

My little Indi girl isn’t going good. She’s had a bloated crop for a couple of days. It did go down yesterday morning and this morning it was down, now it’s bloated up again. I’ve given olive oil thinking it could be sour crop, just to help push some things out. She did this poo and now someone...

One of my ~2 year old Leghorns has diarrhea and stopped laying about 5 days ago, and she used to lay everyday. I did find a large soft shelled egg in the coop yesterday, though, that I assume is hers. I also noticed my ~4 month old Silkie has what looks to be bloody poop. I found 2 spots...
