It was normal to me..and then the last stool..was solid water and then some kinda of red..like really thin string that was reddish..
But not anything like peoples photos of some solid red color

And iam so new at chickens..
And sad and worried..

Iam going to go to bed soon..I gave vitamins, and then later tried some of the corid
And water by the dropper and I see him pecking his food a couple of pecks then stops

He also won't lay down just stands

I guess I will see how he is tommorrow and thank u again

C&Rman :

My old flock of chickens got this it spreads like WILDFIRE, is he also sniffling and has bubbles coming out of his nostrils? The best thing that helped me was Appple Cider Vinegar, I put a cup a galllon I dont think you are suppose to put that much but I did because my whole flock got it. I had a total of 15 chickens and all but 4 died, I got rid of the 4 that were surviers and I bought a new flock and built a new coop it is just awful I hope you do not go through what I did

Thank u crman..what did yours have? Did u ever find out?

I had some 8 week old RIR's do that a few weeks ago, looked fine, then puffed up, then got real sick.

Come to find out it was Cocci.

I got some Sulmet and it cleared right up.

I have a 10 week old Ameraucana looking like that just today so I am treating asap with Sulmet.


Hope this helps!

Sending you and you poor bird good thoughts. Hope he comes through it okay. He's lucky to have such a caring and attentive person.
