Anyone got experience with coccidiosis?

One of the new chooks is sitting a lot. It seems quite healthy otherwise and is still eating and drinking but it sits a lot and tends to even sit down and eat at times. Its had diareah pretty bad too but Im not sure that isnt because it was on a mix of layer pellets and lettuce and we have now changed its diet to grower and grass. They were all pretty bad but Im finally noticing normal poos around.

The bit that really worries me is the red poos. I remember having reddish brown poo with the others but this, while not exactly looking like blood is redder and its sort of stringy looking too.

Im thinking Ill try and grab a sample and take to the vets to see if she thinks its cocci? Anyone dealt with that? UGH!!!!

Thank goodness at the 11th hour I read about quarantining them from the existing chooks!
