Cocci in my meat birds

[amtreth]

I think that my meat birds have cocci. They are starting to die off and I am just curios what I should do, if anything. They are still to thin to butcher even though they are going on 6 weeks. Any advice is appreciated

I would look into ascites first. Do you see any sign of cocci in their poop? Ascites is a common problem in meat birds and easy to rule out. If it is cocci then you would want to treat with corid but then you have to wait to butcher. Also, meat birds give you much more meat then it looks like they do.
