Possible blood in poop

Yes, it is.
What exact product did you order?
I think it comes in a couple different 'strengths'.
Not sure on dosage but....
@Wyorp Rock @casportpony @Eggcessive @Pyxis
would know?

In the US the most common two are 9.6% liquid and 20% powder.

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

9.6% liquid - Do not dilute

• Give 0.1 ml per pound of body weight orally once or twice a day for 1-3 days.

or

• 0.02 ml per 100 grams of body weight orally once or twice a day for 1-3 days.

20% powder - Mix 1/2 teaspoon powder with 2 teaspoons water.

• Give 0.34 ml per pound of body weight orally once or twice a day for 1-3 days.

or

• 0.07 ml per 100 grams of body weight orally once or twice a day for 1-3 days.

Hello! This is my first time raising chicks and I got them on Friday 4/3. One of them has a bit of red in their poop and has since yesterday, it’s not a ton but enough to have me concerned. Also sometimes an orange watery poop. She is still eating and drinking well. Could this possibly be Coccidia? Can a chick that is only one week old even get it? I am not feeding them medicated feed and they were not vaccinated. Thanks!

Possibly Berries? Or it ate a frog or lizard. I have this problem with my roosties, they always eat our home grown berries and also eat lizards. I found a lizard leg in his poo once! Maybe there even stressed out or have a sickness, Lets hope its not something negative...

I haven't had a case of coccidiosis, i make a mix of water, apple cider vinegar honey, garlic, sea salt(just a bit), i also some times add a bit of colloidal silver and vitamin powder. (if it tastes good to you, it tastes good to chickens.)
Ive seen some youtube where chickens are sic and treated with similar mix and they recover.
