Hi all, I’m new to chickens. For two days now one of my chicks (10 weeks old) has had about 4-6 burgundy colored stools per day. She is otherwise eating normally and moving around with the rest of the gang in the run. From what I gather from various posts here, it could be coccidiosis, so I’ve got some Corid coming tomorrow (my local Tractor Supply is out). I’m also concerned if it could possibly be something else like an internal injury from something she might’ve eaten in the yard? Here are some pics from this morning. Thank you for your help!!!

:welcome The Corid treatment is a good idea. Any possibility that she may have been eating Tartarian honeysuckle berries ?
 
Thank you for your reply! No Tartarian berries over here. Their run is mostly barren ground. I’m watching them like a hawk now for any changes...
