Updated - Corid and Amprol (amprolium) Dosing

Pics
thank you . is That 6 ml per GALLON ? Only because VET told me to give 575mg per 1 LITER.
If the vet said 575 mg per liter, that is 6 ml per liter, that is 22.71 ml per gallon.

Math:
6 ml /1000 ml (# of ml per liter) = 0.006 Corid per 1 ml water
3785 (# of ml per gallon) x 0.006 ml = 22.71 ml of Corid per gallon.
 
The moderate outbreak dose for the powder is 3/4 teaspoon per gallon.
The moderate outbreak dose for the liquid is 1 teaspoon per gallon.

The severe outbreak dose for the powder is 1.5 teaspoons per gallon.
The severe outbreak dose for the liquid is 2 teaspoons per gallon.

Medicated water needs to be the only drinking source. Make fresh daily.

Your goose can have medicated water.

Kathy, Do you dose chickens and chicks all the same concentration? I saw in another reply of your that it seems you do, but I have a source at another site that has a substantially smaller dose for chicks (1/4tsp powder per gallon) as the treatment dose. I just don't want to overdose, yet I've lost 2 chicks in the last 24 hours.

Same dose for all ages, and sometimes I give it orally too.

In addition to medicated water:

9.6% liquid - Do not dilute
  • Give 0.1 ml per pound of body weight orally once or twice a day for 1-3 days.
or
  • 0.02 ml per 100 grams of body weight orally once or twice a day for 1-3 days.

20% powder - Mix 1/2 teaspoon powder with 2 teaspoons water.
  • Give 0.34 ml per pound of body weight orally once or twice a day for 1-3 days.
or
  • 0.07 ml per 100 grams of body weight orally once or twice a day for 1-3 days.

The directions above are the same when using any 9.6% liquid or 20% powder. Such products include Amprol, AmproMed, Amprolium 200, Amprid, CocciAid, etc.
