Sick Poult

[Friskybinx]

I have 4 bourbon red poults. One of them got sick with suspected coccidiosis and I’ve been treating them for about 5 days now with 2 tsp per gallon made fresh every morning. The one who was sick bounced back and is looking fine. Yesterday I noticed another one not looking well and it’s looking different, not so much as bundled up but more penguin stance. Does this look like it could also be coccidiosis or something else?

They are still in my garage with a heat light. They are about 6 weeks old.

It is not uncommon for a bout of coccidiosis to hit each poult at a different stage. They don't necessarily all come down with it at the same time.

Good luck.

Thank you! Does this stance still look like coccidiosis? I just haven’t seen one do that before.

I've never had a coccidiosis problem so cannot say yes or no.
