@Peacockteen , welcome to BYC! -Kathy

A combo of Baycox and Corid corrected those poops! -Kathy

If you want oxytetracycine that will make more than 12.5 gallon, get this: Oxytetracycline - 343 102.4 / 135.5 = 0.76 , which means that it's 76% oxytetracycline and 24% filler 760 mg per gram One teaspoon probably weighs 3 grams, so it's 3 x 760mg = 2280 mg per teaspoon The 800 mg...

I'm not quite sure how they came up with amount... Maybe they measured it before packing it? Mike says that powders can get compacted once bagged and shipped, so who knows. My brand new bag has 22 tablespoons, and so did the new bags of two other BYC people. When in doubt, weigh it... 800 mg...

800 mg of that oxytetracyline powder = 14.52 grams -Kathy

And guess what? It's wrong, lol. I just double checked that one yesterday... 22 tablespoons per package. Package makes 12.5 gallons at 800 mg, so it's 22/12.5 = 1.76 tablespoons per gallon, not 2.5. If the 800 mg dose were 2.5 tablespoons there would be 31.25 tablespoons, not just 22. 10...

Here is an eye picture: -Kathy

Thought you all might want to see the poop pictures that I took yesterday. -Kathy

Looks like I have a sick one. :( Not sure what it has, but I'm gonna guess that it's been sick for quite some time. Current weight is 116 grams, but weight should be closer to 200 grams. Sigh... Anyway, found some foamy cecal poo in the brooder, which is not normal, so I'm thinking coccidiosis...
