One of my new pullets had yellow bubbley poop yesterday, I and didn't think anything of it. But today while researching on chicken health came across some info on Coccidiosis!
Is Huvepharma Corid 9.6% Oral Solution safe for my chickens to treat for Coccidiosis? It says for calves!
And how much to use in a huge bucket of water?​

 
Yes, it's safe for chickens. Correct dosing for chickens for the 9.6% liquid is 2 tsp (or 9.5cc) per gallon of water. It should be made fresh daily and should be the only water they have access to during treatment. Treat for 5 -7 days. If the bird is acting sick, not eating or drinking well, then give an oral dose daily as well as the medicated water, dosing for that is here:

PIictures please, if you can, yellow poop isn't always coccidosis. What do your birds eat, including treats? have you checked the crop?
 
Sometimes yellow or tannish, runny or creamy droppings are just cecal droppings, and normal. So pictures would be helpful. Yellow, watery, eggy, mucousy looking droppings are a different thing. If the bird is acting sick or lethargic, or every dropping looks that way, then a cause should be looked for. Corid is pretty safe, so likely no harm if it's something else (if in doubt, I would treat), but if it's not coccidiosis, then no need to treat for that.
 
Yellow, brownish-tan and foamy poop can indicate a possible Coccidiosis infection, intestinal worms, Blackhead Disease or it can just be a normal cecal poop.
