    What is this? Update: Suspected cecal core excretion - coccidia

    Hi, no nothing bloody. Just watery, or even what looked like water. It took her another week or so to start having normal poop again.

    Yes, thank you everyone! Appreciate it and you are all really nice to a newbie chicken mama. It makes sense google wasn't too helpful this time, as seems this one is not too common. Snowflake is really regaining her appetite and full of energy today. Almost back to normal, except she is a...

    Yes, she seems back to normal tonight but was doing better since yesterday. Thursday she had all the symptoms of imminent death. She's been eating Purina Start and Grow Medicated since birth. Over the last couple of weeks we started with some mealworms.

    Thank you! As soon as she got sick we bought her a new crate and separated her from our two other chicks, so unless it got in the crate by itself it came from her. Honestly can't believe something so big came out of her. It's about 2.5" long. Very perplexed....

    I have a white Marans chick born on July 23rd, who became very sick on Thursday. She was listless, lethargic and completely puffed out. We called the only local avian vet but he’s on vacation so went with corid treatment and didn’t think she was going to make it given how I’ll she seemed. By...
