That's what I used to think. Once my vet explained the difference I started using coccidia or coccidiosis instead.Good to know...I was under the impression that cocci was just a shortened word for coccidiosis.

Fear not, Squeegee did not give your chicken coccidiosis, that's because it's species specific, so ducks get duck coccidiosis, chickens get chicken coccidiosis, etc.One of my favorite ducks had the name "Squeegee"
Squeegee was a female mallard who had regularly visited the yard since she was a duckling with her mom, Runty.
Long story short, Squeegee was a diseased varmint (big surprise -_-) and gave My hen coccidia.
If I were you I would also start a new thread on the emergency forum here where you will get more advice about the swollen eyes:My chicks with the bulging eye condition had coccidiosis, and the eye condition developed about 10 days after the coccidiosis. There were several hit with coccidiosis, and a few have developed the bulging eyes. Any recommendations for what this condition is or how to treat it?
