Hen with bloody droppings?

[Rigal082]

This morning when I went to let out my chickens I noticed my brown leghorn hen, Chica, laying down with a bloody mark on her comb. I’m sure it was rooster that pecked her too hard, but when she finally stepped out of the coop she was walking around lethargically with puffed up feathers, and a slightly pale face. I took her inside to treat her wounds and gave her poultry cell, but I noticed she seemed a little lighter. A bit later she pooped and there seemed to little blood spots in it. I’ve read this could be signs of coccidiosis? Any insight would be much appreciated.
Here is what her droppings looked like:

Coccidiosis was my first thought as I read. I would start treatment immediately.

How old, & what do you feed?

I had a rooster that went pale, lost lots of weight, had poop like your girl's, & became lethargic. He passed the same day. Did a necropsy on him the day after, & he had a huge tumor in his digestive tract.

I'm not saying your bird has the samething, but symptoms sound familiar.

Thank you. I’m at the store buying CORID right now. Is the oral solution or powder version of CORID work any better than the other?

She is about 2 1/2 yrs old. She is molting right so I have been giving her a layer feed with a higher percentage of protein, but I like to let my chickens choose so I also set out a bit of regular layer feed as well.

My rooster was 2 years old when he passed.

I don't feed layer since I have roosters, it's not good for their kidneys. I feed 20% Nutrena Naturewise All Flock pellets, & have oyster served separately in a small feeder for the hens.

Thanks for the tip, I have one rooster and he’s about 2yrs old I’ve been thinking about doing a different feed for him

You're welcome.

You can change all of them over, the ladies will also benefit better on higher protein feed.

Please get some photos of the hen too.

I would probably still treat her for Coccidiosis and deworm her - but you have a hen that's in molt, the rooster has pecked her (or beat her up?)/possibly mounting/mating her over and over(?), she's lethargic and puffed up.
Did she stop laying during molt? Some hens do, some don't. Any other injuries besides the comb?

Doesn't matter if the Corid is liquid or Powder = both are effective but the dose is slightly different. Corid liquid is 2 tsp or Corid powder is 1 1/2 tsp per gallon of water. Give for 5-7 days as the only source of drinking water. Don't give any extra vitamins that contain B1(Thiamine) during the course of treatment.

For a molting bird I would deworm with Valbazen - dose is 0.08ml per pound of weight given orally once, then repeat in 10 days.

Does she get along with the other hens? If so, then if she comes right fairly quickly, I would put her back with the flock while you treat her. Observe the rooster's behavior toward her and if he's bullying her, then pull him out. Wait until your hens are finished molting, then put him back - see if that helps.
