So, for the past few days I noticed Pumpkin ( a year old or close to it ) was not acting herself and I don’t think she’s been laying either. She’s lost some weight and holds one of her legs up when she stands in place but will walk on it. Her poop is getting stuck to her fuzz ( could be from where she lays on the ground, though ) and it looks like it might have some blood in it. Could it be coccidiosis? There’s a possibility her leg thing is unrelated and it’s due to my roosters because I have a mixed flock of standard and banties. Though, she can still see out of both eyes or abnormally shaped pupils and she’s wanting to eat.

No runny eyes or nose and her breathing sounds fine.

Treat with CORID? Could I use an antibiotic ( Tylan ) and a dewormer too just in case?
