That's odd, I would expect to see more fecal matter than that given the amount you're tubing, but yes, the red looks like it could be intestinal lining. I think I would start them all on Corid in case the Sulfa didn't get the coccidia.

Okay... You could try to give her a Corid drench. To do that you need to mix 1/2 teaspoon Corid with 9ml water (or 2 teaspoons will be closenenough). Stir well and give 0.3ml orally. Do this in addition to her medicated water. What food is she eating? Chick crumbles?
