Corid dose is 2 tsp per gallon of water given for 5-7 days as the only source of drinking water.Started everyone on Corid this morning and my poor Dwights poo is way worse. He just wants to sleep all the time. Is he going to be ok???
He is 13 weeks old very worried about him. I will do exactly what you said. Today is day 2 of the Corid and I did see him drinking still this morning but is so weak. I can't loose himCorid dose is 2 tsp per gallon of water given for 5-7 days as the only source of drinking water.
I would give him a direct oral dose of Corid at a rate of .10ml per pound of weight once a day for 3 days. This is IN ADDITION to you getting the mixed Corid water into him several times a day. Syringe the mixed water into him. He's likely dehydrated.
Can you get some photos of Dwight? How old is he?

What are you feeding?He is 13 weeks old very worried about him. I will do exactly what you said. Today is day 2 of the Corid and I did see him drinking still this morning but is so weak. I can't loose him
Yes. He is my only Roo. He is so weak. I have tried to get him to drink but he won't. I have looked him over and nothing. His crop is really squishy?What are you feeding?
I would definitely encourage him to drink the mixed corid water, but try to get the direct dose into him for a few days as well.
Do you have any antibiotics on hand? (corid is not antibiotic)
Have you looked him over really well for any injury, lice/mites and making sure his crop is emptying overnight? He's the only cockerel you have right?
Yes. He is my only Roo. He is so weak. I have tried to get him to drink but he won't. I have looked him over and nothing. His crop is really squishy?
I wouldn't.Do you live where it's hot?
Not sure about giving electrolytes with corid ( @Wyorp Rock ?)
