I agree on not inhaling this product. My thought process was the same when it came to ingesting it in food. I did mix DE into the shaving in my barn. When it's mixed with shavings, it cuts down on the dusting. Since I've started using it, I've noticed a drastic decrease in flies. It's raining...
Medicmommy, I wish you well with your girls. I hope what you're experiencing isn't what's forthcoming with my girls. So far, all of my girls still appear healthy. It's been three days so far since I started the corid. Additionally, today I started dusting the run with food grade diamatracious...
Thank you, it's been two days now that my girls have been on corid. So far, everyone appears fine and healthy. I'm wondering if the girl who died was an isolated health death. Anyways, at least ill have a piece of mind knowing that they are being treated since it is prevalent in the soil where I...
Thank you for the ones that responded back to me. I did search but didn't find any threads that spoke about routine maintenance to prevent outbreaks that could've been prevented with a maintenance program. I thought about starting a new thread but in the past it had just been bumped into an...

I understand everyone has a life outside this forum. I don't understand, how after posting for nearly three days ago, only one person has responded and offered me some advice. Especially on a topic where a bird has died and I'm seeking some medical advice on how to save a flock from dying as...
Thank you, I'm in Florida and I'm starting the corid tomorrow. As far as I read, there really isn't any warning signs of coccidiosis until the chicken is already showing intense signs of lethargy. Like I stated earlier, my one chicken that died, appeared normal just the day before. So far, the...
I just wanted to chime in here. Yesterday, I lost one of my beloved chickens. She was approximately 16 weeks and seemed perfectly fine the day before. I still have 13 more chickens and as of today they all appear ok. At reading the posts on lethargic chickens, Ive come to the inexperienced...
GoldieFlocks, I wish you luck. As you already know from building your goat shed, pallets aren't always the friendliest materials to use. But they are free!!! In my situation, I found it too difficult to cut the boards off where they are nailed into. Therefore! I had to cut smaller pieces from...
Hello everyone. I just finished my chicken coop/run and wanted to share the results.
The chicken coop is made from wooden pallets with the exception of the roof which I used 2x4's and plywood. Additionally the floor is pallets with a plywood covering. My wife and I were trying to duplicate a...
