Normal chickens when growing immune to coccidia in the environment will sometimes have a small amount of blood in the droppings, and it shouldn't cause alarm, unless there are signs of coccidiosis--puffed up, ruffled feathers, not eating, lethargic, and diarrhea. Only a couple of the 9 strains of cocci cause blood in the stools. I would probably continue the treatment since you have started it, but give vitamins and probiotics at the finish to help them get back to normal.
