Hi All,
I purchased 6 hens about 7 weeks ago from a local farm --they were supposed to be about 16 weeks old when I got them. Anyway they are about 23 weeks old now and it turns out that one of them has been diagnosed with Coccidiosis. The vet was going to give me Albon but only enough for one bird since she hadnt seen the others. My question is does anyone know where I can get the medication, what dose I should give, for how long, etc. Is there something else I can give instead of that medication if it isnt available? Id like to treat all the birds rather than just one because its quite possible they all have it.
Thanks!
