Have you read the postings on the "Necropsies" thread? There is very good information on there. And some have posted results from testing.

I did the terramycin. It did no good. The best thing for us was to add supplements like baby bird grit, fresh spinach, cod liver oil (sprinkled sparingly on food), colloidial silver in water, and probiotics. We had many get this horrible virus. And at our personal home have been lucky enough to hang on to all of them and have some recover. Keep the healthy ones separate from the sick. And we did not hand feed them we kept the water low & feed very easy to get to. They managed to pull through better with the least amount of contact surprisingly.

MM refunded all our money eventhough we have 7 out of 26 that didn't get sick. The parents must have had immunities. Friends that got chicks from our batch lost several. There are many different breeds present.

Hope this helps! I am still looking for the answers myself.
