    Urgent - Can anyone help TONIGHT ? Corid (Amprolium) dosage question

    OK, the book I was reading was, The Chicken Health Handbook. It says if you are treating them with Amprolium, one of the ways it controls the cocci is by causing a vitamin deficiency, so give them vitamins after the treatment. I have no personal experience, so any feedback would be appreciated.

    Urgent - Can anyone help TONIGHT ? Corid (Amprolium) dosage question

    I am new to raising chickens and I also have a chick whom I think has cocci and I just read in my chicken health book that if you do use medication then you should stop the vitamins because that can feed the cocci. I don't know if that includes poly-vi-sol ? Does anyone know?
