Ok, will it treat existing coccidia, or just prevent future. And when do I stop using the medicated feed?

Dang, I wish I would have thought to ask this question earlier.

Is there a natural way to treat for that? I'd really like to keep my birds as natural as possible.

The birds last year were still very young, but I suppose it is possible they didn't get enough. I thought for sure they were getting more than enough. This years were older, but I only had 8, total. That was 7 OF 8 not 7 OR 8. I am just trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong, because I...

I would typically fill two feeders (the 3 ft long red feeders with holes in the top) every day for all hte birds I had last year. This year I typically go down and throw in a cup and a half or so of feed every day.

Yeah....seriously no symptoms this time around. One day they look fine and are begging for food, the next they're gone. Last year very little symptoms. You would occasionally see a bird getting weak or something, just kinda standing there, not moving around much, almost looking a bit slumped...

Last year I had around 26 chicks. I added younger ones to older ones and got them from several sources. They kept dying off, one at a time. After reading up on it I figured that there must have been a disease that was getting to them all. I eventually lost all of them but one, which ended up...

Is there a medicated feed I could use, or is it a medicine I add to the water, or... Sorry, new to this whole thing.

None of those symptoms fit. Any other thoughts?

I have been losing birds regularly off and on all summer. I think the first batch were because they didn't figure out the new watering system. We went back to the old system and the deaths slowed WAY down. Then we had some meat chicks in with some egg chicks and they were so much bigger, I think...

Your turn!

Keep trying...hint: the state is California.
