Not sure what my roosters have that is causing them to flop over on their sides then not be able to walk. Then they die with in a few hours. I thought it was cocci since my hens have that. But when I forced 1ml of corid down their throats then fed them some and gave them water they died within...
I have a rooster actually several one every day in the past week who when I see them they are flopped over on their sides not able to walk and dont try to get away when I pick them up and also wont drink or eat anything. My hens have cocci so I assumed my roosters also have also had cocci so I...

A few weeks ago I finallt figured out what was killing my flock slowly and its cocci. So I ordered corid and they seem to be doing well. My question is since they were all exposed then treated they are all now carriers, do they pass it on through their eggs? Say I took some of my silkies eggs...

Exactly what breed is this? This is the male. The female is a very light/tan color. And smaller. Before I put them in with the other chickens this boy would always reach out as far as he could out of the cage in order to peck me. But now hes a lot more calm. The person my friend got them from...
I can not figure out what breed this chicken is, he looks like some cubalayas do. But I am not sure. Attached are some pictures of him.
Whatever he is I am pretty sure he is not a mixed breed, since the person i got him from when he was a chick, had all the same breed of chickens like 200 of...
