Re: help! coccidiosis! :(
@chickenlittle - Can't help with coccidiosis, but re: emojis, just type p00p instead of
(use zeros instead of 'o's)

Re: help! coccidiosis! :(
Thank you! I *think* they are on the mend. I know it should take a few days, meds are not magic. BUT there is only one that is looking yucky. This morning he had very bloody p00p. I syringe fed him some of the water, worried he wasn't getting up to go to the waterer and he just p00ped normal blood free p00p on me! He is a little skinny but I am hoping the lethargy will go once his tummy is feeling better and he puts on some weight.

Re: help! coccidiosis! :(
Good News!!!
I was fully expecting the very lethargic chick to be dead this morning but when I lifted the lid off the brooder it scrambled away just like the others! It is still a bit puffed up but it looks way better and it had a nice full crop. NO fresh blood in the brooder and all of them seem to be there crazy selves today. I am cautiously optimistic!
