I have a four day old Orpington that is having a rough time, I picked my chicks up from the post office yesterday, got them all set up in their brooder and had seen all of them eat and drink before I left for work. When I got home that night I noticed one of the chicks wasn’t nearly as active as...
Hello, I have a group of 6 and 8 week old seramas. Any 20 total.
1 of the oldest and 1 of the youngest are showing signs of cocci. They’ve been outside for 10 days. The two are fluffed up and isolating. Everyone else is fine.
Here’s something I can’t find info on which is surprising: they have...
Hi All! Hoping someone can help. I have a 3 1/2 month old hen who is on day 7 of Corid in her daily drinking water. We had 15 chickens and somehow one of them picked up the coccidia virus and we lost five chickens within 18 hours before we could identify what we thought the virus was. I got the...
I bought the 9.6% oral solution of Corid amprolium.
I’ve been reading that the dosage should be 10ml/gal but some of these posts are talking about 20% Corid.
How much should I be sticking in a gallon?
My birds are 3 weeks old. Behavior seems mostly ok so far but I did see bloody diarrhea...
We have been treating for coccidia and one of the two birds below was taken to the vet and confirmed intense coccidia in the flock. Her and her sister both have this weird eye thing going on. Huge pupils and a crescent moon in the front. Does anyone know what this could be?
I got 5 chickens from the flock swap a month ago 4 Isa brown and one rir. Everyone has been fine although we are experiencing cold weather right now. I noticed she would be hunched up and thought to myself I need to get her and isolate but when I would get out to the chicken yard all seemed fine...
Hi, all!
I saw some blood in one of the chickens feces over a week ago and I started to treat with Corid, until I could get a fecal. In the end, they got 7 days of Corid
I got a fecal done and it came back positive for tapeworms. I gave them Panacur, it’s been a couple of days and I found...
This morning when i was letting out the birdsI saw this VERY bloody poop. The one who has it is a 10 week old chick. I had to make her get out of the coop, I sat her over in a corner near water and food which she pooped more bloody. I have her separated now, two days ago she got slightly stepped...
After my first 2 deaths this spring, I've had necropsy's done. Each came back with tumor growths and 'most possibly Mareks'. I had PCR tests done for Mareks & ALV. Both came back negative. I know I've had coccidiosis several times this year, I can't seem to shake it. But I've lost as many young...
New chick owner here….
Have four three-week old silkies. Had a fifth one that passed away at two weeks old (assuming coccidia due to symptoms). I am a vet tech and tested the chicks poo today and found a very low number of coccidia. After the one baby passed, I treated the others with a round...
Hi
I have a hen in my quarantine pen with 5 others. I brought them home 2 weeks ago. I've never seen a chicken do this. She was puffy 4 days ago, and I have had coccidia issues this year, so I started the entire pen on Baycox/Endocox (Corid hasn't worked for me). At the end of the 3 day...
My flock has confirmed coccidia and a gram positive bacteria the vet thinks is giardia, she wants to charge me $99 to treat the two birds I brought in but not the rest of the flock without her examining them, I can find the meds she’s prescribing for fractions of what she’s charging at CVS and...
My hen was diagnosed with coccidiosis last Tuesday from a vet who only found a few possible nematode eggs but was also convinced she was very sick from coccidiosis even though he could find any in the fecal exam provided. Since then she is now walking and drinking on her own, we saw drastic...
My geese have had an on and off sickness that causes white watery diarrhea for awhile, I took two of my geese to a new vet not far away on Saturday, fecal test results just came in yesterday, they have cocci in their droppings plus a gram positive bacteria the vet says she strongly thinks is...
On August 2nd 2020 we noticed my silkie hen acting lethargic with her feathers puffed and not necessarily tending to her then 4ish week old chick. We treated the whole flock with Corid as we suspected coccidiosis and after 48 hours there were no improvements with her conditions so we stopped...
Looks like we’re dealing with coccidiosis again. I found several droppings with bright red blood on the droppings board this morning and some in the run, which tells me multiple birds are dealing with it.
Flooding in the area is making treatment a little more difficult as the chickens have...
Hi All
I've recently had coccidiosis in my flock, all birds are being treated and I want to clean their coop and run to avoid reinfestation. I'm struggling to find what best to use, apparently standard disinfectant is useless, ammonia hydroxide is all that works but it can be dangerous to...
6 - 7 week old chickens pooping very orangey red stool (no pictures.) and two of them puffed up. The white one (Vanilla) is more lethargic, not really eating or drinking or super perky. Had blood present on legs and face. Black chick (Coffee) is puffed up slightly lethargic but still actively...
