    Chicken with Coccidiosis or Worms?

    It's been going on for like 3 months of watery poo and no laying. She molted during this time though. Just yesterday I noticed she was losing weight and had lost a lot of it. I have three birds in a 15 square foot coop and a 72 square foot run. I feed organic laying pellets from Atwoods and I...

    Chicken with Coccidiosis or Worms?

    Is it possible for me to add the liquid SafeGuard to her food and mash it up and she eats the mash? I feel like that would work better than giving it to them through their water.

    Chicken with Coccidiosis or Worms?

    For the SafeGuard you say per pound. Is that for food? I have the liquid SafeGuard for goats. How long do I treat her for with each and how often per day? Thanks!

    Chicken with Coccidiosis or Worms?

    Which one should I use? Corrid or SafeGuard? I don't want to spend a bunch of money to get a fecal float, but I don't know if she has coccidiosis or worms. What should I disinfect my coop with and should I treat my other birds with the SafeGuard or Corrid?

    Chicken with Coccidiosis or Worms?

    Hey guys! So I have a chicken that isn't doing well. She has lost a lot of weight and has had runny poop. No blood in it from what I've seen. She isn't acting lethargic and is about one year old. I have been told to use Corrid. I was wondering how you treat a chicken with SafeGuard (goat). Thanks!

    Watery Poop and not Laying

    I know that worms cause weight loss too and I don't want to go to the extreme just yet. I would like to try with the SafeGuard and if she doesn't get any better then I will use the Corrid. Thanks so much for the help!

    Watery Poop and not Laying

    They refuse to eat vegetables unless they find them themselves. They don't get a ton of veggies though.

    Watery Poop and not Laying

    What are the signs of coccidiosis? She isn't lethargic and her waddles and comb are a nice deep red. I think her runny poop has stopped.

    Watery Poop and not Laying

    I don't want to go get a fecal float because I don't want to spend the money on it. So I'm wanting to use something that will most likely get rid of almost any kind of worm. Should I eat the eggs my chickens lay after treatment? Thanks!!

    Watery Poop and not Laying

    I am going to correct myself now. I am pretty sure she has some sort of worms. She has lost A LOT of weight. When I touched her breast to make sure she wasn't losing weight, I discovered that her breast was just bone. She has had watery poop and has not been laying. She looks perfectly healthy...

    Watery Poop and not Laying

    I was also wondering how to naturally deworm a chickens. I don't feel comfortable using all those chemicals and haven't dewormed my chickens in a year. I didn't know this procedure should be done. Thanks!

    Watery Poop and not Laying

    I don't think she has coccidiosis. She looks perfectly healthy and acts like it too. There is no blood in her poop. She has plenty of energy and seems like normal to me. I can check her poop once more fro any blood. I have broken the poop open and there are little flakes of clear something in...
