Do we think this is intestinal shed or blood?

Have an isolated silkie due to lethargy and a small prolapse that seems to have resolved itself. It’s hard to separate her stool from the wood chips but she managed to do this one off the chips and it’s got some orange bits in, and I can’t decide which these are. I was going to do a round of Corid on everyone, but they’re part silkie (part EE) and I wasn’t sure if a thiamine blocker was harder on them.

I gave one dose in their water today just in case but she’s acting perky and eating and drinking now, so I’m not sure if it’s worth treating what may not be there.

Looks like intestinal shedding, but there's quite a bit of mucousy urates in the poop too.
She prolapsed and was lethargic, is she back to her normal self now? Any discharge from the vent at all or crusty material?

If she prolapsed, even if it went back in, it would be a good idea to give her 300mg Calcium Citrate+D3 once daily for a week to help with retention and hopefully keep her from prolapsing again.

If you wish to treat for Coccidiosis, you can use Corid (Amprolium). Dosing is below.



Liquid Corid (Amprolium) dose is 2tsp or Powdered Corid Dose is 1 1/2tsp per gallon of water given for 5-7 days as the only source of drinking water.
Do not add any extra vitamins/electrolytes that contain B1(Thiamine) to food or water during the course of treatment.
