I read once in a thread that you could give concentrated Corid for a sick chick & how to mix the powder to make a concentrate. I only want to do this if it is safe. I have this one poor chick that I treated for coccidia at 3 wks of age, listless, not eating & drinking. The first time I treated with Sulmet since it was all I could find. Chick bounced back & seemed better. I moved her & her sisters from the brooder to a small outside coop at 5 wks of age. I treated everyone again with Corid powder solution 1.5 tsp per gallon of water since this was the first time exposure to the outside & the weather has been excessively wet & warm (Florida) & I thought I was seeing some bloody poop. The chicks are now 8 wks old & once again the little one that was previously so sick is looking lethargic again. She was doing a good job gaining some weight but has always been smaller. I am thinking of just treating her since the other chicks seem so well. Does anyone remember how to give the concentrated Corid powder & is it safe??? Any suggestions ? it is frustrating this little one is sick again.
