    Could this still be coccidiosis?

    Direct dosage, as you call it, is called "drench dose". You use Corid undiluted at .1ml per pound of body weight once a day for three days in addition to the Corid water which is five days, and wait a week after the fifth day and do five more days of Corid solution. No drench doses necessary the...

    She's looks great! She should catch up eventually. Be aware that chickens often take two years to reach full size, so be patient.

    Could this still be coccidiosis?

    I've been at this a long time, but I still marvel at how resilient these guys are. Just today, I had a year-old hen with coccidiosis, gave her a drench dose, and within a couple hours she had gone from inert to normal again, including getting her appetite back. Corid really works fast. In my...

    Good. Yes, intestinal bacteria can affect infected chicks differently according to each immune system and how robust it is. It wouldn't hurt to do one more thing just in case infection isn't the primary problem, though everything points to infection. Give the sick chick some coconut oil on the...

    Could this still be coccidiosis?

    It's possible to have a bacterial infection along with coccidiosis. Corid alone may help with the coccidia, but you need an antibiotic for the bacteria. Call around to your pet stores or feed stores and pigeon supply shops for this antibiotic...
