That would be a beautiful peafowl from a chick, if it was not actually a pigeon in the fist 2 pics!

Just noticed this question. I'm not really an expert, but when I lost chicks to cocci they got sick about 10 days after I put them on the ground, so I will now start preventative dosing at 1 week from exposure. I do not dose before exposure, I dose after exposure, but before symptoms appear.

You need to be a bit more specific with posts like this, who and what are you referring to?

One thing I have noticed over the years is that chicks hatched by hens do not eat much feces, they eat what mom feeds them and she doesn't feed them that. Incubator hatched chicks on the other hand will eat pretty much anything including lots of poop, this tends to not be a problem for us as the...

Hi there, you are talking about chickens correct? If so, and they are 6 months old there really should be no need to treat preventatively for coccidia. Cocci is a microorganism that is present in the soil, pretty much everywhere. If your birds have touched the ground then they have been exposed...

You have to put it down past the esophagus so they do not get any in their lungs. Look at one of casportpony's posts you'll see a link at the bottom for tube feeding info and videos.

I cannot answer your question about using Corid and Sulmet at the same time, but I did want to suggest tube feeding if they are not eating. When my chicks got cocci the vet said I needed to tube feed or they would likely starve to death, this can happen in a day or 2. He said the key was keeping...

Medicated feed will NOT take care of Coccidia. I had several chicks die of Cocci last year even though all they ate was the medicated feed. After stool samples and speaking to the vet I was advised that the amount of amprolium in the feed is not enough to take care of a major infection, it is...
