Does anyone know if chickens can get sick and die from possibly coccidiosis that may have turned into a respiratory infection?
I’ve lost several chickens from possibly coccidiosis over the last week but the last 2 that died had large masses on their eye. One died before I...
I have 4 chickens that are 14 weeks old. This morning, There was a splatter poop with blood on the ramp into the coop.
There was also bloody splatter under the roosting bar they sleep on.
I went to TSC and bought some corid. Just mixed it into the water: 2 teaspoons into a gallon of...
Hi all! I've read a lot of conflicting information on when to switch chicks from a medicated starter to an unmedicated starter/grower. Our chickens are currently 11 weeks old, and have been on Manna Pro's medicated starter from the beginning. We put them in their outdoor coop/run at 4 weeks (so...
I treated my young chicks and guineas for cocci as I lost 2 and noticed the symptoms. Everyone perked up and then the other day I noticed dirty vent on a young pullet (most turned out to be roosters). I really want to save her. I have isolated, washed the area with warm water and dettol mix...
I'm new to polands. I have six five-week old bantams, just starting to come off of medicated chick crumb.
Someone on a Facebook poland group frightened me by saying polands are famously susceptible to cocci and she just goes ahead and treats them with Coxoid regardless. (In fact, the whole...
I have some Silkies that hatched out approx 4 weeks ago. They are doing good except that i noticed yesterday there is bloody poop in the brooder. The blood is bright red, not dark and I thought at first that one of the chicks was injured.
Everything online points to coccidiosis... I am in...
I had to say goodbye to my favorite hen yesterday. Young sweet Phyllis, a beautiful Buff Orpington that I raised since she was about 4 days old. She always seemed the strongest. She was the mother hen of my flock of 3; the sweetest girl, she always ran up to me when I came outside, and followed...
My pullet I have raised since a chick, died suddenly. We found her laying upside down like she suddenly fell of the roost during the night. We noticed she had also pooped blood that night, which we had never seen before.
She has been housed with two other pullets that have seemed fine and...
I have a two week old chick that is growing at a third of the rate as the rest. She’s still almost the same size as when she hatched, but her wing feathers have been growing in. Breathing is slightly labored and there is sometimes a clicking sound.
She only sleeps standing up. Will eat and...
Long time no see, BYC! I'm going to make this post short and sweet lol.
What should I treat first? Worms or coccidia?
We had devastating flooding, it brought in a bunch of crap. I noticed some thinner chickens today and thought I should treat them to be safe.
I have corid(liquid) and...
hello, my roo died this morning with what we suspected was coccidiosis...:th
We were only able to get one dose of Corid in him before he died. We are planning to give the three hens the five day treatment and then put the Corid in their water for the 21 day prevention.
I was wondering if you...
When it rains, it pours. It’s been raining here for three days, and my mother hen has lost three of ten babies to wet and very cold conditions (she’s still doing her best). My coop has drainage issues that I haven’t been able to address yet so it’s a mucky wet mess. While I was going outside of...
I adopted 3 ex-batt hens about 3 weeks ago (they are 18 months old). They were all in a very poor state and had also had the stress of transport before I collected them. I have had them separated from the rest of my girls and have given them much TLC and good quality feed. They were all...
I got these quail from another breeder and it appeared they had arrived with cocci?
Despite keeping them completely separate from my birds and washing my hands before going into cages, I think they caught it too.
I got a hold of some Amrprolium and mixed it accurately in their water. Mixed a...
This last Saturday we noticed bloody poop in the brooder that holds our five three-week old chicks. I'd read a lot about cocci so we immediately began treating with Corid using the measurements of 1.5 tsp of powdered Corid per gallon of water. It's been two days and we're still seeing bloody...
Hello, I am new to chickens and am hoping to get 2 Rhode Island Red Hens as well as 2 Buckeye Hens. I am wondering what Coccidiosis is and what it does to chicks. The chickens would be a day old when I get them and I'm also wondering about starter feed? Help!!
Hello,
I'm new to chickens, these are my first. I got 11 chicks from the hatchery and everything seemed fine. I am feeding them medicated feed. Then on friday I got 7 new chicks from someone, approximately the same age. They had not been on medicated feed. On Saturday I noticed bloody poop, on...
I am a new chicken owner with only four chickens. 4 days ago I noticed that one of my hens was not moving much, and almost not eating or drinking.
I immediately started looking online for what problem could possible be and I've noticed that all simptoms made me think of coccidiosis! The loss...
I have one of my young chicks Tango hatched Christmas eve. I found him in his coop covered in ants. I washed him off and started treatment for coccidiosis but I am not sure if it right or not. He will drink water but wont eat and wont open his eyes.
Tango is breathing better but still wobbly...
