HELP!!!! WEEK OLD CHICK RUNNY POOP???? DARK ORANGE

[BackSwampGirl]

What should I do.What can I give it and get to the Feed Mill to help it.And what do u think this is,that the chick has,,,PLEASE HELP ME

I would treat for coccidiosis, by treating with Corid. It could be blood in poop, but some poop can have orangey color in it and be fine.....I would treat just to be safe as Corid won't hurt it.

Thanks so much.What is the med. called that I give her.It has been a long time since I have had chickens and can`t remember,Thanks so much,Sandra

Corid, it comes in a liquid or a powder for cattle or swine. I find it at Tractor Supply Company. Give a teaspoon in a quart chick waterer. You can also give a drop in the mouth to make sure it gets some.
