1 y.o. rooster sick, weak- green really watery poop for 2wks

[orchidman]

My rooster has been sick for two weeks and he isn't improving. I checked his crop and that is not impacted. I wormed him once with wazine. I have him separated and confined to a point that I was able to observe all his droppings and saw no worms expelled at all. If he had worms would I have?
He does not appear to have any respiratory issues.
His main symptom is constant very watery poop that is usually green in color.
Thanks for any help.

Sorry you are having these troubles. Coccidia (a one celled protozoan) is a parasite that will cause these symptoms. You must deworm with Corrid for this. You should be able to find it at TSC or other feed stores. Good luck and hopefully this is the problem cuz it's treatable.


Oh and usually when you deworm you will not see the worms unless they have roundworms. Roundworms are expelled if they have a bad case of them. Most other worms die internally and are reabsorbed by the body.
