3-4 w. old chick not eating/drinking

When treating for coccidiosis, it is best to treat them all at the same time since they will excrete the oocysts in the poo.

We have already covered all of this, this is a younger person without the funds to purchase amprolium , so he's doing what he can. Albert did you get some medicated chick starter?
And are you keeping them under a heat source?

Are you treating your birds for Coccidiosis? Sulmet targets two species of cocci,Amprolium(Corid)will target 9 species. How long have your birds been ill and what are the ages. They have to drink the medicated water for it to work properly.

Yes I am feeding it with Sulphadim (branded Sulpha Aid). There is no Sulmet or Corid in Australia - Sulpha is the best I can find. They have been ill for 2 days now. Appprox 2 weeks.

You have Corid (amprolium) in Australia, it's called Amprolium 200.

Oh. Thanks, but it is way too expensive for my family to allow and I’ve already tested their limits by buying the Sulphadim.

It stopped having blood in its poop yesterday but now it has a bit. I have given it medicine already. It falls asleep very easily
