Clostridia ( a bacterial)

None of them (now four pictures) were those either. Try not to think just in terms of diseases.

I'm not playing a guessing game. The only other things I know of are Newcastle Disease and Chicken parvovirus.

Finally got a poop picture. She is not any worse but not much better either. I gave the Corid for 2 days and de-wormed with SafeGuard. How long before they start to eat and act like a chicken again?

If it's worms or coccidiosis you should see improvement in 2-3 days. How much is she drinking?

Not much but I am using a syringe to squirt the medicated water down her throat. She drinks it when I do this. She did eat some kale that I placed in her cage yesterday but not today. She ate a little bit of crumbles.

Its good that she's eating. Always a good sign.

Yes. I agree. I was hoping the diarrhea would clear up by now. I don't want to put her back out with the other chickens until it does. Would you do anything different?

I would keep them separated until she doesn't have coccidiosis anymore, because its contagious, I think.
