Vicious chickens you have there Benny...

They have too! They live in Israel and they are surrounded with anmy, ect, ect.

You have trained them well.

Perhaps you should post them outside the door to your house like guard dogs. Except they're guard chickens. People would be unsuspecting.

Let us know how it goes with the vet. That's tomorrow?

It’s definitely blood.
There are no vets that deal with chickens literally anywhere near or within a 2 hour drive I live in Wilbraham MA if anyone knows of a vet that does chicken/birds ...farm .. anything in my area I would be forever greatful!!
I’m going to try separating them I think that’s the best way to go. Thank you I’ve been so worried I didn’t even think to do that.
There was blood again this morning in the coop. I’m hoping one of the girls is about to start laying but I have a feeling that’s not it

I pretty much molested my girls trying to see if I could find any scratches bloody vent anything and I can’t find anything. I locked them up all day yesterday NO BLOOD wake up this morning and theirs blood in the coop again. .... I’m so confused!!!

Oh my gosh, now I'm all worked up over this. You poor thing. I (and I'm sure WE) understand your confusion, fear and helplessness! I have no idea as I'm very new myself but I'm sure am crossing my fingers for you and your girls. Get to the vet.

Hi Gabby, hope everything went well with your chickens? I went to a vet yesterday, they gave Marcelina a little 1/4 of a pill hid it in a tiny piece of cheese and down the hatch it went . Today so far so good no blood . They don't use corid (here we live in Mexico) so this is what they use for cocci and other parasites. So strange cause she would poop blood right after laying her egg? Again hoping things went well for you?

Can you order corid from somewhere?

With older flocks, treating for a couple of days once a month with corid in the water will help them a bunch. It will also help chicks from getting it later too

I know you can order corrid on amazon and from the vet supply online.
I am trying Kocci Free which a lot of the “all natural” owners use and the vet I saw said they have seen/heard of owners having success with it as well as a preventative.
My girls are going to be okay!! All their screens were good !! Vet thinks they that one of them seems to be getting ready to laying the blood was shed lining. Usualy there’s not a lot of blood but OCCASIONALLY it happens.
I’m so glad all our girls and yours are going to be okay IDK if I can take the heartache and worry again !!’
