I have a hen about 1 year old, she can walk but is wobbly and will kinda fall after walking awhile. She's not eating or drinking. She has runny poop, white/yellow/greenish/clear. She's isolating and wouldn't sleep on the roost with the others last night, she was on the floor in the corner of the coop by herself. I gave her Rooster Booster B12 last night with a syringe and a drink of water, then this afternoon I went ahead and started her on 1cc of Corid. I'm just guessing at this point... vitamin defenciency, Coccidiosis, Mareks?? I have her in my house away from the others and she's mostly just laying around, HELP!

Do you have photos of your hen and her poop?

Does she weigh 10pounds? Direct oral drench of Undiluted Liquid Corid is 0.10ml per pound of weight given orally 1-2 times a day for 3 days, this is in addition to her drinking the mixes Corid water throughout the day. (Dosing below).

Work on getting her hydrated, the offer some food. If she's not laid an egg and should have, then start giving Calcium Citrate+D3 once daily for 3-5 days. Just pop the tablet right into the beak and let her swallow.

Check to see if her crop is emptying overnight and look her over for lice/mites.



Liquid Corid dose is 2tsp or Powdered Corid Dose is 1 1/2tsp per gallon of water given for 5-7 days as the only source of drinking water.
Do not add any extra vitamins/electrolytes that contain B1(Thiamine) to food or water during the course of treatment.
