Red in poop

[georgiashens]

Hi everyone,

I have 2, 17 week old chicks that have just been moved into the main coop and run. Since then, I have noticed that under where they are sleeping, they have some strange looking poop. They aren’t showing any other symptoms and seem really healthy at the moment. Could this be coccidiosis or something else or is it just lining? Thank you!

Take a fecal sample to your vet to find out exactly what you are dealing with. https://the-chicken-chick.com/whats-scoop-on-chicken-poop-digestive/

Yes it could be coccidiosis. Especially since you just moved them in to a coop with other birds.
