Cocci is the plural word for coccus.
This is a bacteria.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coccus
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Staphylococcus_aureus
Antibiotics are needed to treat this. NOT Corid.


Coccidia is a parasite.
Coccidiosis is the infection that happens with the bird is infected with coccidia.
Corid is what we use to treat this.
