Corid Overdose! And it doesn’t seem to be working...

I think it might also help them if you can put them in a warm room in your house, 80-85 degrees is ideal.

Welcome to BYC! Since Corid is so nasty tasting they probably didn't drink enough for it to be harmful, so I think you'll be okay. You should also know that when I spoke with a technical person at the mfg they assured me it was almost impossible to overdose them on.

Do follow the instructions that @Eggcessive and @Pyxis recommended, they are correct.

Perfect!

Just reduce the dosage of Corid to 10 ml per each gallon, or 5 ml per 2 quarts. You can also dose the chicks with undiluted Corid 0.1 ml per pound of weight twice a day to give an extra boost. Are the chickens drinking the treated water? Some strains of coccidia are more serious. If they are not getting better after 2-3 days, you may need to switch to another treatment, such as toltrazuril or sulfadimethoxine. I will tag @casportpony, since she is more familiar with those meds.

Hi there I have a pretty sick rooster and ran across your comment about dosing full strength corid. If I’m dosing him with 0.1ml per pound do I still need to provide him with the diluted dose in water? He’s pretty weak so I’d like to offer him only nutridrench water bc that seems to have been helping him to get his strength back enough to eat. But it says to only offer the corid water. Just wondering what I should do. Thank you for the info btw!

Yes I would do both. A direct dosing and then put it in his water. You can direct dose. I did both for my chickens last summer, it took a few days for them to turn around and one of them almost 10 days.

Welcome To BYC

You can find Corid in the cattle section of stores like TSC.
It comes in liquid or powder form.

Liquid Corid dose is 2tsp or Powdered Corid dose is 1 1/2tsp per gallon of water given for 5-7 days. The mixed water should be the only thing the chicks drink during the course of treatment. Do not add any extra supplements or vitamins that contain B1(Thiamine) to food or water during treatment.
