Chick pooping blood

[casportpony]

I'm confused by this post. I just read a link on another post that included photos of normal poo and I was under the impression some pink is ok cuz they apparently sometimes poop intestinal lining??? Is this untrue or are we talking about straight up dark red blood?

Pink or intestinal lining in my flock is never normal., so if you see more than one, it could mean there is a problem.

That's interesting...I have read several posts on here in which they mention intestinal lining. Is that breed specific? Also if some pink is not ok can I do Corid 9.6% along with medicated chick feed and ACV in their water?? Currently I am feeding my 2-3 week old chicks medicated feed starter with a pinch of chick grit per chick feeder. I also have 2 tsp of ACV in their water as well as giving them a daily yogurt treat. However, I am seeing some pink (what other people have described and posted pics of intestinal lining). I am noticing that when I'm around for someone to poop it sounds very liquidy but has firm poop in it? Is this normal? Everyone is acting fine...they are very active, eating, drinking, scratching...but I don't want to not treat for Cocci if that may be the cause of their pink poo. Please help with what I can and can't do as far as mixing Corid, medicated feed and ACV. Also what would be the dosing for a chick waterer??
Thanks!

So sorry, somehow I got unsubscribed from this thread.

Corid dose is 2 teaspoons per gallon, or 1/2 teaspoon per quart. Try it for a few days and see if the pink poop goes away.
