Safe to use wazine 17 and sumlet at the same time?

Thread Starter 

Usually i am helping others with problems. Now i have a new problem i've never encountered before. 

 

I had a few great quality chicks sent to me a couple weeks ago. I discovered worms in their poo, so i mixed in a bit of wazine17.

Now i discover they may also have cocci, because of blood in their poo. Probably from the sand i use as poultry grit from the sand pile where a pool used to be. I am used to cocci treatments in chicks, it's in my soil, nothing i can do about that, but expose them at an early age to build immunity.

 

I am wondering if using wazine17 and sumlet  at the same time possible. I do not want to lose any of these expensive chicks, nor do i want to kill them by mixing meds.

 

I would be thankful if someone will help me out with:

 

  would it be safe to use both wazine17 and sumlet at the same time.

  Should i wait a few days before giving sumlet?

If you look at my signature line below you will find a link on parasites and worming.  I wormed my birds first with wazine because it was locally available, then valbazen and treated their bloody stools wtih neomycin (it is what the necropsy recommended).

I would not, if only because Sulmet is so rough on them.

I would treat for cocci first. When you see blood in chicks poop, death then usually occurs. There are 9 types of cocci that chickens can get. Sulmet treats only 2 types. I recommend corid instead, it treats all 9 types of cocci and is not harsh on their system like sulmet. Corid 9.6% liquid solution dosage is 9.5cc's per gallon of water for 5 days. Then on the 6th day instead of repeating worming with wazine, dose them with safeguard liquid goat wormer, 1/4cc orally undiluted. Wazine only gets rid of large roundworms, safeguard gets rid of many types of worms.

I think the sand may have caused the bleeding. It was the first time i added sand to their brooder, they may have over-eaten too much.. i have not seen any blood in poop in several  hours. So i guess i will not treat for cocci.

UPDATE:  Still no blood in poop this morning. I believe i was correct about the sand causing them to have blood in poop.

No more worms in poo either. I still am going to buy and use safeguard on my whole flock, sense it is about time i worm again.

 

What is the waiting period before i can eat the eggs and will safeguard ruin hatching eggs?

Fourteen days after last dosing is the withdrawal period. Hatching eggs should be safe to hatch.
