coccidiosis? UPDATE

Quote:
So you think that its most likely Cocci?

I do.

Based on the conglomeration of information.

They've been on the new ground for an appropriate incubation time for a protozoa overload.
The sitting around and being lethargic is a sign.
And blood in every or most poops is never normal. Cocci poop can also look sort of hamburgery. But no matter what it looks like, if she has pooped blood twice in one day, and she's inactive and sickly, i would treat her. That's my take on it.

When I went out to do chores this evening I found one of my Buckeyes dead ( it wasn't the one showing symtoms). My big ee rooster then ran over to the body and started mating with it ( what a pig!). Most of the birds feathers ( on its side) were ripped out, and there was blood on her comb ( probly from the rooster). So I don't know if the rooster killed it, or if the cocci got to her and the rooster did the damage after the death. So I removed the other buckeye and put him with the other one that I separated later today. I will try to pick up the cocci meds tomorrow. Should I treat just the buckeyes or the whole flock ( I think I might of asked that already oops)?
