I cannot believe I am having to post questions again on here. Our big girls are now almost 22 weeks old and we got our first egg yesterday. Our little girls are almost 13 weeks old. The big girls live in the big coop and the little girls live in the chicken tractor that is inside the run...

So sorry for your loss!!!

So happy that Lizzie is doing well! Hoping her brother makes a full recovery.

Yay! So glad you are making progress and the ray of hope. You have worked so hard. Are you still on medication? Please keep us updated on their recovery!

It sounds like you are dealing with coccidiosis and a respiratory problem as well. The corid is only going to treat the coccidiosis.

I would definitely take a least one chicken to see the vet or do what ryanhodapp is suggesting and get a fecal test done. You do not know exactly what you are dealing with. You will probably end up spending more money treating the unknown than what it really is and possibly end up losing them.

Great news!

Good luck Adriana! Keep us updated with what the vet says.

Kathy, We have done 7 days of Corid treatment at the severe outbreak dose and today is the last day of 7 days of Corid treatment at the 1/3 of a teaspoon dose. What do you recommend now? We have heard to give probiotics and vitamins to help them recover fully from being on Corid for 2 weeks...

No apologies needed Kathy! I am learning a lot and I hope others are too.

Unfortunately, I have to agree with Kathy. It is not worth the risk.

Thank you Kathy!

Do we have to treat dogs too?

No problem. We had a hard time finding Corid and ended up finding the powder in the cattle section of our local TSC. From what it looks like from other threads, the vaccine is not 100% effective. Someone chime in if this information is not correct. Coccidiosis can kill quickly and I would...

If you found a bloody stool, I would treat your whole flock for coccidiosis.

Thank you for the update. I know you have your hands full with all that is going on. So glad to hear your girls and both of you are still hanging in there. Hoping they make a complete recovery soon! I cannot say enough about Kathy. She is truly amazing. I know that we would have lost a lot...

Started Corid powder in their water at the severe outbreak dosage late last night when we saw another suspicious bloody stool. We haven't seen anymore and they seem to all be doing okay so far.

We have been treating our 10 and 8 week old chicks and I am proud to report that we haven't had anymore blood in their stools in the last 24 hours and they all seem to be back to their normal activities. Before we knew they were sick, we ordered more babies and they got delivered in the middle...

Thank you Kathy. Do we need to be doing anything different from what we are doing since we are still seeing occasional blood in stools? Are we seeing this because there was damage done to the intestines? Will it resolve itself?
