sick chicken?

She needs Corid. Yes if you can get her some where so she stsys warm that will help.

The problem with letting coccidia run it's course? Severely extensive gut damage! Meaning permanent irreversible damage.

Like I said I don't want to let it run its course. Their basically my sons pets but ive gotten quite attached to them. I've got a dog crate that will give her more than enough room and I'll keep her somewhere warm. I'll try corid and keep everyone posted. Thank you everyone again for the help.

If you have buttermilk, it will help line her guts for a little protection.

Hello and Welcome To BYC! If she is a laying hen or older bird she could also have vent gleet or peritonitis you might want to consider, if you can post pictures in the Emergencies section that might help also

Enola you are a genius - are you by chance a speech pathologist? You should be.

Please let us know how it turns out with your hen. I hope it is soon enough to save her.

She seems to be doing a lot better now. Kept her isolated from the others for a few days, used corid and some other things I picked up. I did have to use a plastic syringe to get her drinking but she is back in the coop and acting normal again. She did push out what I believe was an egg but very soft and broke up. Maybe she did have a lodged egg and I didnt feel it? Now for a new question. Her comb as I said has always drooped to one side, it's actually over her one eye to a point where she is having trouble seeing. Is there anything I can do to correct it?
