    Case of Coccidia

    🤦🏻‍♀️ I picked up some new chicks from a farm about a month ago, so they are 4-5 weeks old. I feel bad for not putting them on medicated feed. Because I’ve never had a problem before but I have learned my lesson and I feel absolutely TERRIBLE now. I found bloodly stools in the brooder this...

    Pure blood from chicken? And blood in poop?

    I’m asking for my mother in law that has a chicken she saved from a coop fire a few weeks ago. This hen is a silver laced bantam polish. She sent me these pictures and I am not sure what to tell her. I initially thought coccidia, but with the huge blood clot, I’m unsure since any of my chickens...

    6 mo old lethargic, trouble with balance, panting

    Hello everyone, I'm hoping someone can help me this morning. One of my 2 Cream Legbars became lethargic last weekend and almost seemed depressed. While free-ranging, she would sleep in random spots when all the others were pecking about. Her vent looks healthy but I noticed her poop was runny...

    6 week old chicks intestinal lining

    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...

    Mereks? What do I do?

    I think my flock has mereks. I’ve lost a 30 birds since May I had a necropsy done at the beginning and they said it was coccidia. So I went to the vet and they suggested amprolium, but my birds kept dying. My vet said to keep them on the maintenance dose for the rest of the summer. Now I’m...

    Is this coccidia?

    I've seen a few poops like this, and saw the chicken who did this one. He hasn't seemed to be acting sick but I'm a nervous first time chicken mama!

    Cocidia?? HELP!!

    I scoop the poop out of the coop every morning and noticed this one with blood tinged mucus in it. I have a younger flock on medicated feed and they will steal theirs sometimes. Should I treat with corid? Is it safe if they're eating medicated food? Do I need to toss their eggs while on the...

    Mycotoxins and Coccidiosis, Sulfa drugs question

    Hi, I have coccidiosis for the first time in my life in my flock of 120 hens (they are mostly rescue and 2+ years old). My vet gave me this sulfa drug and said 3 to 5 days is enough. We are on day 4 and the poop is finally getting better, less diarhea, they are eating better. Should I extend...

    Coccidiosis

    I have talked to about 10 different poultry experts and this is the Solution that best worked for me! For the treatment of coccidiosis in birds, it is highly recommended to use Corid at the rate of 9.6ml or CC per 1 gallon of water. The medication should be used consistently for about a week to...

    Coccidia treatment

    I’m on my third round of hatchlings and this round is getting hit hard with coccidia and Corid just isn’t touching them. I no longer feed medicated feed. They aren’t on wire flooring anymore and I usually will automatically start them on Corid for about 5 days when they are on the floor the...

    Coccidiosis in 9 week pullets - will they survive?

    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...

    Wry neck and amprolium

    I have some chicks that I am currently treating for coccidia as I found that they had some bloody poop. They range 3-5 weeks old and seem to be doing better on the amprolium treatment. I did notice on day two that my frizzle silkie had developed wry neck. Could this be from me treating with...

    Coccidiosis?

    Noticed some bloody/mucus poop under one of my chickens when I closed them in tonight. Assuming it’s cocci and going to start the whole flock on corid, but wondering others opinions and if it could be anything else.

    What is the dosage of amprolium for preventing coccidiosis?

    A month ago I hatched some chicks and when I spoke to a vet recently, he said it wouldn’t be a bad idea to give them amprolium. The feed I use is unmediated. I’ve used powder Corid in their water in the past, but I can’t remember the dosage to use. If anyone could tell me how much of the powder...

    URGENT: How Do I Treat My Sick Hen?

    About a week and a half ago I took my bantam cochin hen, Lucy (1.5 years old), to the vet for a bulge on her face. It was determined that she had bacteria in her mouth, and was treated with Enrofloxacin for 7 days to help clear it up, which it did. The main concern was everything else we walked...

    Coccidia or intestinal lining

    I have 10 chicks that are 3.5 weeks old. They'll be 1 month old on the 20th. They are all vaccinated for coccidiosis, and we're on medicated starter for just over a week. Since then they've been eating all flock. This morning I noticed quite a few poops with blood in them. Do you think it's...
