I’ve been very clear about how I feel about sheep thank youAre you planning to play shepherd for the first few days?
When I buy feed it is going to last a while. So dosing their water and then continuing them on medicated feed is realistic for me. Yes it contradicts itself early on but as soon as they are off the medication I place the non-pathogenic in their system so they can resist any additional intrusion.
If all you have is a couple of chicks then your bag of feed is going to last longer than the dose of medication in the water. This way you are not throwing away feed or creating an opening for something bad to happen. I actually like the overlap.
This is how I have done it in the past.
They aren’t all Jabbers and HawksSometimes I really wish I could have one. That would upset the old tribe.
Mine are actually fairly quiet most of the time. There will be the occasional crow, but by far my hens make much more noise.They are kinda loud (Crowing all the time)
Based upon my research in the United States, this is incorrect. Please see the following post.Mark the vet said medicated feed has safe levels of coccidia in it, so if you give chicks amprolium/corid at the same time, the amprolium/corid kills off the safe coccidia in the medicated feed.
So, yes, one or the other.
Maybe corid first, then medicated feed.
However MaryJanet is in Australia, and it could be completely different there… like I said I cannot obtain a medicated feed here, so I’m fairly certain that means that the ones available in Canada are also Amprolium laced or such…Based upon my research in the United States, this is incorrect. Please see the following post.

Oh, and the feed brand with the DE purporting it to kill coccidia? Please don’t get me started… don’t waste your time, money, or risk your chicks health with it. Just use either the medicated feed or treatment in the water.
Go figure. "Cackling like a bunch of hens" actually is something.They aren’t all Jabbers and Hawks
