Long time no see, BYC! I'm going to make this post short and sweet lol.
What should I treat first? Worms or coccidia?
We had devastating flooding, it brought in a bunch of crap. I noticed some thinner chickens today and thought I should treat them to be safe.
I have corid(liquid) and...
This last Saturday we noticed bloody poop in the brooder that holds our five three-week old chicks. I'd read a lot about cocci so we immediately began treating with Corid using the measurements of 1.5 tsp of powdered Corid per gallon of water. It's been two days and we're still seeing bloody...
I have a nine month old cuckoo maran who is definitely having an issue with laying/pooping. Over the last week or so I have found a couple shell-less eggs (not just soft shelled, there was absolutely no shell). More recently I found a couple almost scrambled egg looking poops, but I couldn't...
Hi,
Long story short, I've been treating with Tylan 200 for a respiratory disease that has slowly spread through my flock. It has effected my 3 mo. old chicks the most with the biggest loss in their ranks. They are also fluffy, not gaining weight and not growing. There is a 6 mo. old pullet...
So I have been researching Corid for a few days now, and I am trying to figure out how long my rooster should be taking it.
He is receiving the liquid Corid from the vet, and it says 1oz for 2 gallons of water. At the risk of sounding stupid, I have no idea what my vet wants me to do. I just...
Help please
I bought 10 chicks 10 days ago.
They range from 2 weeks to 6 weeks
All Orpingtons
6 lavender
3 yellow
1 black
I noticed several are pooping blood and they have been on medicated food.
I went and bought Corid like the internet said
Do I need to stop their medicated food while I...
Hey guys!
I had this beautiful blue Cochin pullet that came down with a cough. She starting getting lethargic, sleeping all the time and closing her eyes and unfortunately she died suddenly one day. Now the rest of my chickens are coughing. They aren't acting lethargic or down or anything, they...
I keep noticing yellow mustard colored poops in my coop. I’ve just treated everyone with powdered Corid (1.5 tsp/gal) for 5 days so far. I put the Corid water in their feed as well to ensure they are really getting it in their system. Nobody is acting weird at all but this poop is just odd...
I have finished a 14 day of 1/2 t. Corid per gallon of water which was after a 14 day of 2T. per gallon for coccidiosis. It was a bad out-break. I know you're supposed to give vitamins and electrolytes following such treatment. All I can find right now is Save-A-Chick Vitamins and...
One of my 1 year old bantam hens is looking like we might lose her. She became lethargic about four days ago and stopped eating and drinking. Her droppings have been a bit watery but hardly any at all over the last couple of days. (No sign of worms or blood). Only other symptom is panting...
I have Corid (amprolium) 9.6% Oral Solution Coccidiostat for calves.
My flock is not having an outbreak of Coccidiosis but I want to give the 21-day prevention dose.
I want to put the Corid in their drinking water. The bottle gives a prevention dose of the rate of 8 floz per 100 gallons. But...
…. water that has Corid in it? I'm on day 2 of treating for coccidiosis. The weather is about to heat up BIG time. I have never had to treat for coccidiosis before.
My chickens are 3 months and 2 weeks old. I make up a new batch of Corid water every day.
Thank you for your help!
My 3 month old wyondette i noticed yesterday outside she was laying down, feathers puffed, bloody stool and not eating or drinking. I gave her some corid and brought her inside. By that night she was drinking by herself and trying to eat and also standing up, a huge improvement from earlier in...
I have about 55 teens (16 weeks old) mostly girls -- we came home two weeks ago to one dead under the coop. No sign of injury, no lethargy. Nothing. Just dead --
Three or four days later, another one was dead beside the steps (looked like it had fallen off the steps). Again, no sign of...
Hello. Our hens' fecal float came back positive for cestode protozoa. Our vet prescribed Corid (3ml/gal) for 5 days. I assume that's for the protozoa, and FWIW our hens don't show any signs of bloody stools (cocci). Just some slightly runny poo.
I had to look up cestode to figure out that it's...
Hi all,

17 large fowl hens, 3 bantam hens all 13 and 14 months old
3 Silkies almost 10 week old
8 large fowl babies about 3 weeks old
1 large fowl baby about 5 weeks old
Our coop is approx 85sf and our run is approx 160sf. We are in the process of building...
1) What type of bird , age and weight (does the chicken seem or feel lighter or thinner than the others.)
Hen d’uccle. So she’s very small to begin with but I can feel her very pointy keel(?) bone. I got her 8 months ago. She’s roughly a year.
2) What is the behavior, exactly.
She started with...
I just got four - 4 week old chicks last week. 2 - Cream Crested Legbars, 1 - Olive Egger and 1 Welbar. When I got the chicks home I did notice one chick (one of the CCL's) was smaller but thought maybe it was just younger. Now 1 week has gone by and it really doesn't seem like this chick is...
I ordered 25 chicks from Murray. I ordered the full vaccine profile (Marek's and Coccidia) because I thought, why not? I received 25 live and healthy, but chilled, chicks. 2 days later, one previously healthy one started to fade. He had "pasty butt" and I thought, "Oh, no, coccidia!" I ran to...
