This is transmitted by ingestion of cocci from infected poo/ soil. Wet soil makes it much easier for them to get it.
Just to note, coccidiosis can still occur in chickens that haven't touched soil yet (I read about it here on BYC from a breeder). Also, you do not have to have bloody droppings for it to be coccidiosis. Some strains don't produce bloody poo apparently or it might not have gotten bad enough for bloody poo.
