My three young White Leghorn roosters started crowing today

.

ALL three of them. It was a chorus of screeching, strangled rooster like sounds

Fancychooklady I was thinking cocci but she never passed bloody poo. But I am going to have to treat the others for it just in case. Just happy the others still looking good and are happy.

The most common misconception about cocci is the presence of blood in the droppings. You won't always see blood.

I agree with all your guesses except the bottom two pics.. Look henish to me but a little hard to tell for sure.

A weird thinking out loud question here. I was wondering others opinions on whether a rooster could kill a chicken... I went out yesterday afternoon as I heard one of the D'Uccles screaming. My 3/4 grown frizzle cross Aussie rooster had it by the neck and was tossing it about quite violently. Now the two that died the other day only had a visible mark to the side of their necks. I would not have thought this possible if I had not seen it for myself. Maybe it is just a coincidence but a strange one if it is. MY rooster will now be off to freezer camp on the weekend.

I have had roosters nearly fight to the death and there is generally a lot of blood. Anything is possible.
