Laying Hens ate chicks Medicated feed

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
My laying hens got into the medicated Blue Seal chick feed today, how long should I wait before eating their eggs again?

If all the feed had in it was amprollium, there is no withdrawl at all.  Check the label of the BlueSeal and see if the anti-cocci was amprolium.

 

A quick check at the website shows that is all that it is. Amp.  No worries.

Thank you! You don't think a little wormer medicine will hurt us humans! I hope it does something to the Lyme spirochetes that have taken up residence. Thanks again.

It is merely a coccistat, in that it blocks cocci from growing wild in a chick's system, overwhelming the chick's immune system resulting in coccidosis. That's all it does.  It has no other abilities or properties.
