Coccidiosis is a possibility, but it almost sounds like the other chicks are pecking at them. How much space do they have?

Is your cage rat proof?
Is it pooping blood or does it have an injury?

They have a pretty open space that is only used for sleeping, most of the time they are out in the yard

It is not mouse and rat proof.

Yes we have purchased a chicken house off Amazon and will be coming this week!!! BUT for the meantime we have put chicken wire around the area . Thank you!! p.s the chicks have only slept outside for a few days due to them getting bigger

No injuries ,but the cage was not rat/mouse proof so we decided to put chicken wire around it (we are waiting for our chicken house to come)
