What Does Coccidiosis Look Like In Chickens?
Coccidiosis is a disease caused by protozoan parasites affecting the intestines of chickens. Symptoms include lethargy, lack of appetite, diarrhea (which may be bloody), weight loss, and dehydration. In severe cases, chickens may exhibit labored breathing, hunched posture, and have a ruffled appearance. Diagnosis of coccidiosis is made through a fecal exam by a veterinarian or animal health expert.
