Thanks so much for doing the math. I have my doubts on my mathmatical abilities even during the daytime hours.

For the record, on chicks just over a month old, I used the 9 cc. dosage. (helps to keep a needleless syringe around to use for those type measurements)That may be more than some recommend, but it knocked out the cocci in record time and I will use it again at that strength. Sorry I missed answering your question. For some reason, my brain isn't functioning at full capacity and I've been doing that for days.

Truly, you are generally the giver of the very most sensible answers, especially to questions about cocci. Maybe you can just take a vitamin and chalk it up to a brain fart.

Seriously, we all have those times. Often it's nutritional. I hope you feel better.

So the reccomendation is 1 - 2 tablespoons for 1 gallon, Right?

for the kind you have it is 9.6% and says
16+ fluid ozs of corid to 100 gallon of water
100 divided into 16= 6-3/4 ozs of corid to a gallon
so guess speckled hen is right 2-3 tbsp of corid
Ours was a stronger kind so you would have to double the amt I have given

we must have had stronger corid
our vet told us
if very bad coccidiosis use 2 tsp of corid for 5 days then 1 tsp for 2 more days
and they got better

I always liked to put some in wet mash as the sick chicks would eat the medicated wet mash and get started on the medication
1 qts dry crumbles
2 qts water
in the water add 1 tsp of corid or sulmet which ever you are using
feed this two mornings at rate of 2 tsp per chick

then put the corid in the waterer also

if using sulmet put it in the waterer ans 1/2 pkg of red jello to a gallon of water
the jello sweetens the sulmet so they will drink it

and also feed wet mash probiotic

1 qt of dry crumbles
1-1/2 qts of milk any kind
1/4 cup of yoguart

as this will restore the gut flora

also when done with the medication
in their wateer put 2 tbsp of ACV to gallon of wter
helps the gut flora balance out the damage the medication did to the gut
any other questions email me PM

If you have any vitamin E around in the medicine cabinet, break one open and add it to the drinking water. Research has shown that vitamin E can shorten the course of a coccidiosis outbreak.

Our walmart sells Vit E liquid now and that makes it easier to put in the water for this

I have begun to notice blood in the stool of our teenagers ( the 4-5 week olds) This Sulmet Powder I see online from TSC says for swine only... is this the one to get?

I assume I should five it to the whole flock as they all tend to come into contact in the backyard, right?

Bummer!!!!!
