Shopping list for chicken drugs

Amprolium (corid) - for coccidiosis
VetRx - colds, croup, scaly legs and a de-stresser
Oxytetracyclin (Agrimycin) for resp illnesses
Sulfamethoxine (Dimethox) for just about anything and my "go to first" drug - including coccidiosis and resp infections

I have only had to give one treatment of dimethox when a chicken developed a runny nose. stopped symptoms instantly

bactim or septra is sulfamethoxine - often used in humans for UTI. pet shops sell it for fish tanks. you could open capsules and disolve in water

this one

I have to write a 15 page research paper for my capstone course. I was thinking of writing about hatching eggs, but I'm worried that I won't be able to find enough peer-reviewed journal articles to back up what I already know from experience and our discussions.

I may look into it again because hatching eggs would be easy to write about. Too bad I can't quote your article as a source.
