Chickens can have coccidiosis infection 3 days before they show symptoms, so it is hard to notice they are sick at first. Two strains are very deadly (out of 9 or more.) The amprollium in your medication should start helping soon, but if they are not drinking it, you must give it to them with a dropper. Sorry for your loss, and I hope they start doing better.2 just died. Not too hopeful for others now. Is blood in stools the last stage just before death? Did I start medicating when it was too late?
