I noticed the last couple of days Sesame has had a poopy bottom, but I didn’t t see blood or anything, so I figured it was the way she was roosting at night. I have noticed a couple of times today that she just closed ber eyes like she may not feel the best :confused: but nothing drastic going on. Anyway, I’ve got the Corid started and we’ll see.

For her you could also give her a drench:

"When treating a bird for coccidiosis one can give an oral drench in addition to their medicated water. Here are the instructions:

Corid 9.6% liquid - Do not dilute
  • Give 0.1 ml per pound of body weight orally once a day for 1-3 days.
or
  • 0.02 ml per 100 grams of body weight orally once a day for 1-3 days.

Corid 20% powder - Mix 1/2 teaspoon powder with 2 teaspoons water.
  • Give 0.34 ml per pound of body weight orally once a day for 1-3 days.
or
  • 0.07 ml per 100 grams of body weight orally once a day for 1-3 days."

Thank you. I picked that up too and will give that to Sesame. I just cleaned the poop board (crazy, nutso day around here) and I did see 3 poop places that had a little blood. I have the one hen (Sesame) that is almost 2 and the others are 1-3 month bantams. Sesame’s place on the poop board is white and yellow and runny.
 
I just have no motivation to do anything today. I was supposed to get the brooder set up today because the chicks could hatch any time after Monday. I did run to the hardware store to get the propane bottles refilled so I can boil down by bone broth outside, but that is it (besides caring for the milk drinker). I guess the overnight work is really catching up to me. I guess I'll go down and set my incubator up for lock down and keep the broth moving forward. I'll set up the brooder first thing on Monday. The chicks can stay in the incubator for a day or so if they hatch early, right?

Yes, just pretend they are being shipped to you!
