Medicated Feed or Corid?

[tplummer]

I just wondered what others might suggest. Is it more economical to feed Corid for a period of time or feed medicated feed for 16 weeks. If you do the Corid instead of the feed, how often and how much do you use?

Medicated feed only helps resistance to cocci, but does not necessarily prevent it. Corid can be given for 5-7 days to treat a case of cocci when it shows up, so you can feed medicated or non-medicated feed. I always used to feed medicated and always had to treat for cocci anyway. It's in the soil. Here the medicated is no more expensive than the non-medicated, at least in the brand I have been using lately.

Thanks for the info. I kind of thought this way. I knew it was in the soil.
