Sounds like Cocci, but without pic couldn't be sure. Can you post a pic or tell us which of the pics above it looks like?

3 chickens are now dead!!

wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

Have you treated them for coccidiosis yet? Sulmet or Corid. Corid will kill more strains of cocci than Sulmet. If you don't treat them, they'll continue to die.

the red poo is coccidiosis
they got coccidiosis from the soil they were put on


#1 FOR COCCIDIOSIS
Use medication of choice
I give both medications and amts to put in the wet mash medicated with either corid or sulmet

also use the corid or sulmet in the water at same time for 5-7 days

)A) for the flock do this
THIS CAN BE MADE INTO
1 QT OF DRY FEED
2 QTS OF WATER
AND THEN ADD THE 2 TSPS OF SULMET


If using corid 9.6% for the flock
1 QT OF of dry mash
2 QTS of water
add 2 tsp of corid 9.6% to the water
feed 2 tbsp per chicken for a feeding
feed this two mornings to get the medication in the birds
also at same time put the corid or sulmet in the drinking water for 7 days
each chicken gets 2 tbsp of the wet mash with coccidiosis meds

speckled hen gives corid(9.6%) liquid in 2 tsp per gallon of water a

And after medicating give the following things
either the corid amproylium or the sulmet will work but now you have a difficient gut problem with the E.coli
and it needs to have the Vitamin E put in the wet mash probiotic to help the E.coli gut problem

do this
now the
natural probiotic recipe is is:
3 tbsp of dry crumbles
4 tbsp of milk, sweet, sour, or buttermilk or a mixture of all or some
1 tbsp of yoguart of non flavored yoguart ( no artificial sweetmer)
mix good
AFTER PUTTING vIT'S IN
PUT 1 TBSP OF APPLE SAUCE FOR THE WET MASH PROBIOTIC

NOW THE IMPORTANT INGRIEDIENT FOR EACH CHICKEN FED
and add 1- 400 mg of Vit E by cutting the end off the vit E capsule for each chicken fed this wet mash
putting it in the wet mash

OR FOR each chicken your treating
so for each chicken use 2 tbsp of mixture and 1-1000 mg of Vit E

twice a day for them till the manure is solid

and feed each chicken
2 tbsp full of the wet mash probiotic and what they will clean up in 20-30 minutes
then clean wet feeders and restock dry crumbles

do this twice a day for a week
till the chickens manure is right
then quit the Vit E make just the wet mash probiotic
then once a week for life

All the while after mdicating the birds use
do not use ACV with medication

2 tbsp of apple cider vinegar per gallon of the chicken water so their gut flora wil be regulated
they should have this at least 3-5 days a week
then three days aweek after they are over coccidiosis
the vit's are neccessary to clean up the damaged gut problem
take all the electrolytes out of the water

email me any questions so you are not confused

a chick that i got yesterday is crappingt out red crap i think it might be blood in it but im not sure? all of the chickens at the girls house that we got her from were really healthy. she isnt acting sick or anything its just her crap

 

[Glenda L Heywood]

the manure is showing bloody droppings
and denotes avtice coccidiosis germs
so unless you get busy and feed the chicks the medication of choice to the chicks they will all die with in 4 days of onset

please note that the manure is a sign of sickness when this way
I feel your explanation was too dramatic and you need to read and study how to help the manure or dodo to be the correct color

any questions email me

I am confused. I read your post because I saw 3 red droppings in the coop when I let the ladies out this morning. Then witnessed 2 hens drop the red liquid poo. I have 6 hens who free range. You said in your post the cocci is from the soil they are put on? I keep their pine shavings stirred around in the coop, could they have got it from spending time under th wild bird feeder?

 

[lil urbanette]

Also I'm not sure about your probiotic instructions. What are dry crumbles? And what are the vITS? Would eating wild bird seed cause a gut problem?
