Bloody stool

[alexplustrips]

One of my five week old chicks is pooping some blood in her stool. What does this mean? I've only had them for two days and I noticed it last night.

Most likely it's cocci. Purchase Corid 9.6% liquid solution. Dosage is 9.5cc's per gallon of water for 5 days.

You have to treat all chicks,get medicine right away. Is she eating,drinking fine. Is all fluffed up and looks tired?

9.5 cc is close enough to 2 teaspoons isn't it?

Yes,10 cc = 2 tsp.

I could only find Corrid 20% powder. Any guidance on dosage with this??

Corid powder is 1/2 teaspoon per gallon of water.
