    help!

    Corid is good for treating Cocci infections, but as long as you keep your chickens relatively clean and dry, and don't plan to add more either by breeding or buying, you shouldn't really see any signs of cocci.

    Found hen dead, cut her open, looks like her liver exploded *GRAPHIC PICS*

    You're right. It's not lesions. Its the RESULT of lesions that have "eaten through" the tissue. This is internal blood clotting. That's exactly what it looks like when blood clots up on the inside of a body. Plus, a one year old hen would not have such advanced stages of cancer, and not in the...

    Found hen dead, cut her open, looks like her liver exploded *GRAPHIC PICS*

    It LOOKS more like coccidiosus in advanced stages. It attacks the digestive system and cause lesions on the intestinal tract. THIS is why chickens with cocci tend to have bloody stool. This photo makes it a little easier to understand why. Did she act ill before this? Was she listless...
