I have a variety of strange symptoms... I went in to watch the chickens this afternoon after noticing more itching than usual. Everyone seemed fine. Then I went and looked over the roosts (pallets leaning against the walls of the barn). There was two really blood poos! I mean like, blood running down the side of the pallet. Lots of it. So I freaked out and ran to BYC! I thought it was cocci, but they are on medicated food and they seem as peppy as always. I have teramycine, Ivermec, and the round worm stuff. My farm store doesn't sell Corrid. They are a pretty pathetic farm store, frankly. And to get to them I have to go to a neighboring town. I can order Corrid, but from what I understand, if it's cocci they'll either be dead or better by the time it gets here.
So... is it true yogurt could help them fight whatever it is? Could it be worms? Should I start with roundworms and then move to the big guns (Ivermec)? They're eating like pigs.
Oh, and another strange symptom... a few of them seem to have lost their tail feathers? What is going on here!?
