Last year I read that exposing chicks to soil early on will help them build up immunity to cocci. So I plan to implement it this year. Actually next week is when I am going to get some chicks.

I have 6 chicks (Plymouth rocks and wyandottes) and I found this poop on their heat mat this morning. This is my third brood, and I have never had an issue with coccidiosis in any of my adult chickens, or chicks before... So I don't really know what I am doing...
I have begun adding coccidiostat...
