Coccidiosis in chickens is characterized by pale comb and wattle and dull plumage. They just look unwell. Weight loss may occur and droppings will appear discoloured, sometimes showing blood, and watery. Coccidiosis is caused by a small intestinal worm and can be fatal if left untreated. There are a number of commercial water soluble treatments available. Consult your local feed & grain outlet for what is available since brands are different in every area and country.
