You're treating cocci with albon?

Yes prescribed by the vet. I tried corrid in the water and she still had loose stool

Did they do a fecal?

Cocci is a protozoan.....albon is an antibiotic, and can cause diarrhea.

Chickens drying off after bath. I gave them a permitherin based soap bath. Only 1/4 cup soap to 4 gallons of water and I blew dry most of them so they were not cold. I'll let them.first ish drying for a few hours and dust each one with chicken dusting powder and put them back into the run. I'll use neem.oil on the coop once it's here

What dosage of Corid did you use?
I've recently learned to use 1.5 teaspoon/gal for initial treatment instead of 1/2 tsp/gal.

Antibiotics will not treat cocci.

Over-treating can be more harmful than helpful.......throwing too many meds/treatments at once can just throw everything way out of balance.
