Help please!!! COCCIDIOSIS

[Chloe_El]

So. Coccidiosis.

I have had 2 chicks die so far. i put them on corid (10 mls per gallon in water) about 48 hours ago. I have one left that obviously has it. She is lethargic, not motivated to eat or drink on her own, and is pooping blood. She is now on medicated feed. Im really hoping that she will make it, and im hoping i caught it in time. Does anyone have any tips? I expected her to die last night but she is still alive. I put electrolytes in the water as well. She is about 3-4 weeks old

Drench her.
Give her 0.15-0.2 ml UNdiluted Corid twice daily for three days then once daily for three more days in addition to the Corid water. Do the entire severe outbreak dosage recommended on the bottle.
Make sure the brooder is DRY.
If she survives, start her on probiotics and vitamin supplements AFTER the treatment is over. You can also feed a little cooked white rice with buttermilk after the treatment is over.

What I told you to do in my reply. Give her UNdiluted Corid straight into her beak. Very carefully so as not to aspirate her.
