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 water. I plan to give this to them for a week.
2 questions:
1. Is this probably cocci? I was wondering as most cases seemed to impact younger chickens.
2. I have 2 ducks in a separate run. Can they catch cocci from the chickens? Should I treat the ducks also? Should I keep the chickens separate from the ducks while treating? (I usually allow them all out together for a few hours each day).
