If the Corid treatment is working then I'd think it's cocci. I wouldn't think worms would even have a chance to grow at that age, but i's probably worth a rudimentary check at least. It's pretty easy to do a fecal float and look for visible worms by just putting some fresh poo in a jar half full of water and shaking it, then holding it up to a light.
Even if your vet does not treat birds, the fecal samples they do are the same for basically all animals, and usually only run about $15. That would be the best route IMO.
Hello everyone I am the proud owner of two 6 week old easter eggers and one 4 week old wynadotte chick ( hopefully all females). I bought them all 8 days ago in the evening, I really didn't look at their droppings until the next morning. Every morning I have found droppings like in the picture, not really bloody more like shed intestinal lining. Today is their 5th day of corid treatment because I was worried about cocci at first. The droppings look more normal as the day goes on. I raised 6 red sex links from day old chicks and I have never had this problem before. So is this normal or could it be another problem I'm overlooking? They are all eating and drinking well, they also are very active. Thanks for the help!
