Dosing new members of flock with Corid

[Chandlerharris]

I have an idea of what I’m going to do but wanted to get a few opinions on here! I am currently treating my whole flock for cocci. Including a brooder of 5 week old chicks in my garage. I just got in some two day olds and wondering if I should dose them as well since there will be some back and forth between coop outside and the new brooder not to mention the brooder across the garage from them. Better safe than sorry, right? I feel like I already lost two chicks with mama hens out in my coop outside and it came out of nowhere and I’d really like to keep everyone else safe. How long would you guys dose these little new guys? I’m on day 3 of my original flock.

I just dosed my chicks once or twice a week.

If you're going to medicate them, medicate for the recommended dosage and duration. Otherwise you're just making for amprolium resistant parasites.
