Giving Corid to Grown Hens

[Blue_Myst]

I just thought I'd ask this just to make sure I'm not about to do something that would harm my girls. I have my almost 3 month olds in with my grown flock right now, but they are still showing signs of coccidiosis (yogurt, cayenne pepper, and vinegar helped, but they never seem to have fought it off completely. This has been going on for weeks, so I wanted to give them Corid to knock it out once and for all). Is it all right if my grown hens drink water with Corid in it even if they don't have coccidiosis? Or do I need to separate them from the three month olds again? I really hope I don't have to do the latter, they just got the pecking order situated!

Now, I know many of you will say I should have treated it at the first signs, but I seem to have a very mild strain, because bloody poo is the only sign I've ever had. None of them are sickly lethargic, puffed up, or showing any such signs that they are ill. Just running around like normal pullets with lots of energy! Just wanted to make that clear

I would have treated them if they were acting really sick or in pain, of course.

Thank you all!

yes this is what to do
I gave this for sulmet or corid


using corid 9.6 solutionNow what to do and what to feed after medicating for coccidiosis

to make sure they eat the medicated wet mash do this first ans second day of treating and medication in the water 7 days
also I use the wet mash with sulmet or corid
2 tbsp of dry crumbles(chicken mash)
4 tbsp of water
1 tsp of sulmet add to the water

if using corid
2 tbsp of dry mash
4 tbsp of water
add 2 tbsp of corid to the water
feed 2 tsp per chicken for a feeding
feed this two mornings to get the medication in the birds
also at same time put the corid or sulmet in the drinking water for 7 days

speckled hen gives corid(9.6) liquid in 3-4 tbsp per gallon of water
and after medicating give the following things


either the corid amproylium or the sulmet will work but now you have a difficient gut problem with the E.coli
and it needs to have the Vitamin E put in the wet mash probiotic to help the E.coli gut problem
do this

now the
natural probiotic recipe is is:
1 qt of dry crumbles
2 qts of milk, sweet, sour, or buttermilk or a mixture of all or some
1/4 cup of non flavored yoguart ( no artificial sweetmer)
mix good

NOW THE IMPORTANT INGRIEDIENT FOR EACH CHICK FED
and add 1- 1000 mg of Vit E by cutting the end off the vit E capsule for each chick fed this wet mash
and 1 seliunium tablet crushed for each chick fed this wet mash
putting it in the wet mash
this for each chick your treating
so for each chick use 2 tsp of mixture and 1-1000 mg of Vit E
and 1 sleinium tablet crushed in the wet mash probiotic
twice a day for them till the manure is solid

and feed
chicks 2 tsp full and what they will clean up in 20-30 minutes
then clean wet feeders and restock dry crumbles

do this twice a day for a week
till the chicks manure is right
then quit the Vit E and selinium make just the wet mash probiotic
then once a week for life

All the while after mdicating the birds use
2 tbsp of apple cider vinegar per gallon of the chicken water so their gut flora wil be regulated
they should have this at least 3-5 days a week
then three days aweek after they are over coccidiosis

email me for any questions

Thanks, that's exactly what I needed!

I'll definitely try to do the mash, so I can make sure the 3 month olds are the only ones receiving the corid.

I would recommend having a fecal checked to see if/what the organism is. It may not be coccidia causing the diarrhea- there are many GI organisms that can cause diarrhea. Amprolim/corid is for coccidia, but won't do anything for other organisms. Most chickens become immune to the coccidia after being exposed and surviving, it is in the soil, you can't really knock it out- they will keep re-exposing themselves. The meds will decrease the symptoms & help the bird survive long enough to build immunity.

I need to make a correction
It should be 2 tsp of CORID to each gallon of water
not tbsp
