Marek or Coccidiosis?

[2ndTink]

I see they say there was heavy growth of Clostridium Perfrengins, I'm not familiar with this, did a quick google search and it says it takes an antimicrobial to kill it.

@Eggcessive was the state of decomposition due to the clostridium? It sounds like a nasty bug. (Sorry, just trying to learn )

Sorry, my mistake, but I only saw the one page of the report. It was hard to read sideways, but I missed one whole page. I did not see the clostridium or the eimeria species. She had both enteritis (C. perfringens ) and coccidiosis. Enteritis is treated with several antibiotics, such as amoxicillin and others. Coccidiosis is usually treated with Corid, but toltrazuril or sulfa antibiotics may be necessary if it is a more severe strain.

Yes, I would say the condition and decay might have been related to the enteritis. Here is a good article about enteritis:

I had no idea such a thing existed I hope the OP can find a successful treatment.

So sorry that it was Mareks, but so glad that you got an answer.

I'm so sorry it was Mareks, it is good that you know for sure. There are some good posts and resources on BYC and online.

Here is the first report. I immediately went out and put goat dewarmer in their water. I thought I was doing good on the deworming....guess not.

Clostridium perfringens ! Check Wikipedia​

Similar to salmonella,, norovirus and more.
