I haven't bought either yet. I'm going to go buy some after work and immediately go home and does my girls. None are showing symptoms, but I'm not taking any chances. I have 6 ladies left.
Thank you for the condolences. You never think you'll become so attached to a silly chicken, but then you come to see them and hold them and eventually fall in love.
It sounds exactly like coccidiosis!

I had three babies for about 4-5 weeks and just yesterday we lost two. It completely shattered my heart since I became so attached. Now our one surviving chick/fledgling is so lonely she cheeps every time she can't see a person around her. She slept on my chest and shoulder while I was petting...
