Hello, I have a 10 week old white legwhorn who has been acting very lethargic and weak this past week. Shes also very puffed up and her crown has completely went lop sided.
I have started her on Corid but am not sure this is the right approach. I have 9 other chickens and have since...
I’ve made some posts about what’s been going on in my flock recently, and now that most of it is over, I’m having concerns about my two chicks.
A quick recap: two weeks ago, my chickens started shedding a lot of intestinal lining with some blood. The older chickens recovered, but my mama hen...
I posted a few days ago about my concerns with the intestinal linings and small blood globs in my chickens poop. Everything seemed to be Ok, nothing serious, until this morning. Out of nowhere, my one mama hen (who is also mid molt) was acting very sick, and had blood in her poop, which is...
Hello!
About a week ago I made a post about red globs and intestinal lining in poop. After that, a few more birds had intestinal lining and no more red globs. I had a fecal float done that came back negative for worms or cocci, but I decided to worm anyways since it may not have shown up. About...
So a little over a month ago, I had a major bloody stool, intestinal lining thing hit my flock. I put them on corid; 1tsp per 1 gal for the 7 days. I could still see some blood so treated them again : 2 tsp per gal. with NutriDrench. From there, I had one or two with foamy poop and some...
So I found a regular poop with a tiny amount of red goop on it. So far, that’s it. Other chickens have various kinds of poop from liquidy/mucusy to grassy to normal; I was writing off the liquidy poops because of the extreme heat and humidity. Do you think this is coccidioses? Should I treat or...
I had to treat my chicks this year with Corid twice, within a couple weeks. All seemed fine after the second round. A few days ago, one of my older hens found her way into the baby chick pen and terrorized the now 6-7 week old babies. The next day, I realized my silkie had wry neck. I have no...
Hey all!! I made a post a little while back about my hen having worms. We treated for worms and she seemed to be getting better!! We did the dose each day for 5 days and then we did one more at the 14 day mark just to make sure we got everything. Worms were never present in poo. Now she is...
Today was the first day they had bloody poop! We are 5 days after a completed 7 day treatment of corid for cocci.
I just started them on nutri drench and probiotics and fresh berries and oatmeal past two days.
Today there was bloody poop in the coop. No one is acting off at all!
We were...
Looking for any ideas on what might be going on. We brought 4 new pullets into our flock. 2 cream legbar and 2 EE's. The EE's are older by a few weeks. I have now lost both legbar. Both seemed to have the same symptoms. Also a few from my older flock seem a bit off. There was red in the pullets...
My 4.5 y/o EE, Darla, is going through a pretty extreme molt. She's at the bottom of the pecking order and always pretty awkward, but is acting even more confused and flustered than usual, and is otherwise very low energy. This is normal for her during molts. However, I noticed the following...
My hen has been acting strange since yesterday. She laid her first egg last Friday and hasn’t laid since. Yesterday she started to refuse food and hold her tail feathers down. She keeps to herself in the darkest part of coop, so I assumed she was egg bound, I didn’t feel anything on her abdomen...
Recently had what we're 99% sure is a coccidia outbreak amongst our flock. Most of the girls seem to be doing reasonably fine, but our lavender orpington Lilly seems to have it the worst and is having a rough recovery. Our splash maran and bielefelder hens also seem to have it but are having a...
On Saturday I noticed one of my silkies had a swollen crop, not hard, balloon like. She has had ACV in her water since, I’ve given her some warm water mixed with veg oil, massaging her crop whenever I get a chance from neck to breast, and started monistat on Monday 2x a day. Monday I noticed two...
Hi - I have 7 mixed chicks that are 8 weeks old. They just moved outside with their sisters (separated of course). I just found one poo that looks like blood is maybe in it? Just this one and it looks like tomatoes almost but they haven’t eaten anything other than grass, dirt, whatever they...
I have a flock of 9. Two have coccidiosis. I noticed them both with their fluffed up look, lethargy and sleepy eyes. I treated immediately by replacing their regular water with water with Corid in it. This is day 2 of the treatment and I do notice the first bird picking up more energy than when...
Hi all, 2 weeks ago we had our first sign of coccidiosis with our babies (now 6 and 7 weeks old, then 4 and 5) it was the obvious first signs with bloody Poo from one or two chicks, and another one had very mucusy poo. I got corid, I followed 1 tsp to 1 gal dosage for 7 days. Things were cleared...
Im treating my whole flock for coccidiosis due to a chick having it that im brooding indoors, and this includes 2 grown outdoor hens. Im not a huge fan of eggs and only one is laying right now so i feed their eggs back, usually 3 eggs once a week.
So heres the big question:
Is there enough...
So i have 3 chicks and one has been having slightly odd poops and seems sick. It had really light tan poops and now just had really bad diarrhea with some mucus on my hand. They are on unmedicated feed and im concerned about coccidiosis. I can pick up meds tomorrow but im not even sure if thats...
Hi there! I have chicks that are showing some signs of cocci and so I am planning to treat them. (Two weeks old, one is a little hunched up, drowsy, lethargic, yellow/mucusy poop.). That said, I pulled my corid and it expired January 2022. My local feed supply is out and so I am looking to...
