Do you have any Corid? I would treat for coccidia as quickly as possible. Cocci will kill very quickly and often they don't show signs of illness until 24 to 36 hours before they die. At least that's how it was when I lost some to it last year. You may also need to tube feed them as cocci will cause them to quit eating and drinking, so medicated feed doesn't help, since they are not eating it.

I sincerely hope that's not it but I will treat them for it immediately.
 
Ok what dosing of Corid will I need for 9 peachicks and 3 adults?? I figure I should treat them all. Should I just put it in the water supply for every single bird I have?

This year I have the little ones on medicated feed and I've been using Corid in the drinking water, so I am basically doubling up on the Amprollium because I know Cocci is present. So far we have not lost any. Last year I would notice one looking droopy and 24 hrs. later it was gone.

Good luck to you, I hope they are okay.

There is a thread on here that I think Kathy started, it has the doses on it. Not sure if the chicks will need dosed at a different rate than the adults or not.

X2! Get Corid ASAP!

Corid liquid dose is 2 teaspoons per gallon for 5-7 days
Cordid powder dose is 1.5 teaspoons per gallon for 5-7 days

I used your thread to call the vet so thanks for that thread! I'm just going to douse the entire water supply for all poultry. This makes me very sad though! I still hope it's not it. I've never seen it before.
