Thanks for your reply. What is the EDC section? I am new to this forum. My chicken is young, too young to lay for at least 2 more months, so I doubt eggbound. I did take her to the vet who did an exam and put her on clavamox in case she had eaten something that gave her an infection. I also have...
Well, Agnes is eating the applesauce and drinking her water on her own, but otherwise much the same, very tired and not walking around. Should I have already seen improvement? I started her on the corid water yesterday afternoon.
also wondering - can we still eat eggs they lay if they have been treated with corid? fyi - they are young and won't start laying for another 2 months at least
so I purchased the only thing they had: Corid (Amprolium) 20% soluable powder
coccidiostat - an aid in the treatment and prevention of bovine coccidiosis....that is the right one? and just a 1/2 tsp per gallon ofwater for 5 days?
thanks for you help much appreciated
Great information - cannot thank you all enough. I am going out to get it now and will start giving her the water today. Any suggestions on how much I should get in her? I am using syringes to get food and water down her.
thank you, I hope so too. I am finding it very hard to find Corid anywhere nearby, only found it for cattle not poultry. Ugh - waiting to hear from the vet at noon, fingers crossed.
Also, after reading a bit about cocci it said an indication was bloody stools; no droppings have had blood in them. The coop, and now the run, are sand, and I scoop it regularly so I see the droppings clearly. My sick bird has runny stools but no blood.
THANKS for the reply! Where do I get corid? Can I give it to her while she is on the antibiotic? The bloody bowl movements will come because of the Corid or the cocci? sorry for my ignorance, I really appreciate your help.
Thanks for your reply. I did find a vet that sees small farm animals, and she is on an antibiotic and we are force feeding her. She is still not doing well. The other 6 are fine and happy. Agnes, however, is weak and tired and wont even stand. We are keeping her inside under a heat lamp. Has...
We have had our 7 girls since April - it is now June - this morning when I went in to let them out, 1 chicken didn't get up. She is perching and sleeping. I petted her and she opened her eyes, but then went back to sleep. It is 8:30 already. All of the other girls are out in the run doing their...
