Possible Coccidiosis..Please Help!

[GarnerZoo]

Five of six are now acting very sick. Still haven't been able to get any type of sample to take to the vet..is there any other way to get them checked?

They need Corid ASAP. What have you wormed them with? They also need to be fed a balanced diet. Corn is only a treat, it is very low in nutrients.

 

[GarnerZoo]

I know corn is only a treat. We feed them a layer mix from our feed store but she's not eating it so I am giving her extra corn until she does, at least she eats that and not nothing is what I was saying..i treated them with Sulfadimethoxine (spelt wrong I know) about two days ago and they were fine but they're acting worse now. I'll go to oue feed store again today and talk to her

 

[GarnerZoo]

Would corid work better than the stuff I used?

 

[enola]

Have you gotten the Corid yet?

 

[GarnerZoo]

No I haven't yet, I've got the stuff I used before..im going to start a new thread because I'm not sure what's wrong. Two of the birds are having trouble standing and walking. Ones wing is kinda off

Meat birds we got recently, three of the 20 look like this: closed eyes, wings lifted slightly, yellows water stool all over their bottoms. I didn't see blood. Is it cocci?!?

Get a sample and take it to any vet. Mine was a dog vet only and did it in 15 minutes for about $20.00 if its been super hot where you are it might be heat stroke (are they panting?)

 

[silkiecuddles]

No they aren't panting. I put ACV and oregano oil in their water, and gave them clumps of dirt
