If its perking up and eating and drinking, then you did! This is totally common and you caught it.

I hope so too. I think it's generally good to treat everyone. But I also don't know anything about ducks, so I'm not sure if they can have Corid.Thank you! I’ve got their pen cleaned and food and water clean and mixed the corid in their water.
Should I treat the older birds? They are seperated but in the same coop as are the ducks. My ducks are 5 months old and 1 year old.
The chick I seperated has eaten and drank so I’m hoping I’ve caught it quick enough.
treat with corid just in caseHello, I’m new to the forum. I have raised a medium flock of chickens since 2016 (40 was our highest number) and now have a small flock of female ducks, 5.
We recently added 24 assorted baby chicks, which live in their own seperated part of our coop. Since our older chickens egg production has slowed (we have 19 assorted that are 3-5 years old) They are about 5-6 weeks old.
I noticed a small bloody stool in their pen last night. This morning I also noticed a little bit of blood spots throughout the pen and a bloody poop. I found one chick who was huddled by herself in the corner and checks her and she had just a touch of blood on her feathers near her vent. I seperated her just in case. The others are all running around and eating and drinking fine.
I was just wondering if anyone might have some advise. I looked on google and read about Coccidiosis and pray it’s not that. We have never had any health problems with our chickens before so it’s very concerning and I’m trying not to panic.
We usually order chickens fromMcMurray hatchery online, but picked some up from a new Farm and Home store due to so many farms not having enough chicks.
Any thoughts would be very appreciat
That's great to hear!The baby chicks are doing good. The sick one I separated yesterday is eating and drinking really good. She isn’t hunched over in the corner all poofed up anymore but scratching around and perky. Thank you do much for all the advice. We picked up some nutridrench to give them after the corid treatment is done, I read that restoring electrolytes is important but to get something without thiamine?
