    Coccidios Not Responding to Corid or Sulmet

    I agree that another necropsy would be helpful. I had 4 necropsied to make SURE that everything was caught. and only 2 of the 4 actually had the underlying issue/disease. The other 2 showed the same symptoms but had a less dramatic underlying issue.

    Coccidios Not Responding to Corid or Sulmet

    sorry-I wasnt accusing you of starving your birds. I apologize if it came across that way. It is possible though that this guy was being blocked from feed maybe by a bigger bird?

    Coccidios Not Responding to Corid or Sulmet

    sounds to me like they are saying that something was wrong with the feed-either not enough or it was bad, and that the cocci, while present, wasnt the source of death. The feed or lack of it was. So get new feed, and your birds will be fine. ANd discontinue all medications except the sulmet. He...

    Possible MG infection in flock, confused by research-cull or dont.

    I have about 25 birds, and I am moving in a month where I can't take them. I had some sick birds, that I eventually sent for necropsies. Out of the 4, one possibly had MG and I am waiting for the final results. If this is positive, what do I do? From my research, it seems like MG is actually...

    Ameraucana thread for posting pictures and discussing our birds

    hi ameraucana friends! I wanted to swing by and find out if anyone has or will have Wheaten or blue wheaten hatching eggs next month or so. I have heard far too many horror stories about ebay eggs, and I can't seem to find much in my area when it comes to this color, so I figure I probably...

    its everywhere, not just lakeland. But seriously, you get sick when you go to lakeland? That is very interesting. Thanks for the well wishes-it's hard to know what to do when you have some people who are telling you to medicate medicate medicate and others telling you to cull cull cull.
