Cocci in chick?

[Silkiechicken66]

So I noticed one of my chicks has bloody droppings. I have Corid, so I plan on treating it and the other chicks with that. I’m not sure on the dosage.
Another thing is, I have ducklings with them. Can they drink it too or should I separate?

(they are about 6 weeks old)

What food are you feeding the group?

Just regular non-medicated chick feed.

I am not a duckling expert, but I would separate them, and add brewers yeast to there feed. This helps them grow right. I would do the corrid with the chicks, as ducks do not need the help. Also, if you are comfortable with using medicated feed I the chicks for a little bit, this should help with the cocci.

I do add a bit of brewers yeast to their food already, for niacin. Forgot to mention that.
I have them separated for now, but I’m not sure how much Corid to give. I saw something about 2 tsp per gallon, is that correct?

There should be information on the back of the package, as it changes depending on the package and type.

For 6% liquid corid the dosage is 3tsp per gallon of water, it wont tell you that on the bottle because corid is not directly intended for chickens.

It’s the 9.6%, is that the same/similar?

Do you still need help with Corid dosing?

Just for those reading the thread - Corid labeling/dosing on the bottle is for Cattle so you can't use that information. The info below is correct for use in Poultry.
