Medicated or non-medicated starter crumble for vaccinated chicks

[Ol Grey Mare]

I have one hen that I treated multiple times but still has coccidiosis and her stools a r e managed through probitoics and apple cider vinegar
I use medicated chick starter for that reason and they were not vaccinated against it no other hen has had issues but her

Is the persistent coccidiosis vet confirmed by test or being symptomatically diagnosed at home? If it is truly persistent coccidia sis that would seem to indicate underlying issues preventing the development of the birds own response to the local cocci it is being exposed to

Dignosed confirmed with my vet took my chicken in to be seen im.lucky he sees birds and fowl! He is great

We did amprollium treatment with whole flock twice and then a pill, can't remember the name of it right now and she still got bouts of diarrhea

How does ACV help?

I have no clue. Im.guessing it just makes the gut more acidic so it's harder for the cocci to survive I think the probitoics help a lot too

None of the other birds had issues she had this all happen when she got bumble foot too maybe her immune system was taxed

But she seems better now with minor flare ups. I was worried about the other birds but they are fine no issues at all this whole time

Glad she's doing better! I wouldn't raise an chicks from her, though. Mary
