Hello all,
A young bird (around 4 weeks) just died, and the other 5 look lethargic. Some of their poop on their feeder is bloody, I believe they have Coccidiosis. How would it be best to treat this? They are not too interested in food or water. Just this morning they seemed fine, and this evening when I went to feed them they seem, as stated above very lethargic. I also recently raised their heat lamp, not sure if that triggered it, but I lowered that again too. I've never had any problems from this. Any help appreciated. Thanks, MW
Also, I do not raise my birds on medicated feed. I understand that there is a risk of cocci when this is done - One other thing I though of, I have Amprol for older birds, is there a dosage appropriate for young ones?
