My guess is that this is shed intestinal lining rather than cocci or worms, but your thoughts on this picture are appreciated! This is the second morning in a row I have found blood. Yesterday the blood appeared to have a little bit of hamburger-like consistency. I have a flock of 5 Buff Orpington hens and 1 rooster, and I am not sure which one produced this poop. They are about 3 1/2 months old. Thank you.

 
Probably just to be safe, I would also treat them. We had to administer Corid to our entire flock once, and it is completely harmless, so your birds' health won't be affected by it.

I saw the same thing a few days ago and ordered corid online and I am awaiting it's arrival. I hVent seen much more bloody poop but I'm treating just to be on the safe side. I would too if I were you.
 
Thank you for your responses! I don't have Corid, but I do have Sulmet, so I put some in their water last night and will do so for the next few days. I found the rooster also had bloody poop this morning, so I'm glad I sought out your advice!
 
Do you have Sulmet on hand? If not, you can find it at your local feed store. I keep a variety of medicines on hand so that way when something comes up I can deal with it. Good luck, and I hope your girl gets better!
