my chickens and turkeys have coryza or coccidiosis.

[lilcookie]

Hi everyone, I have been treating my chickens and turkeys with sulmet in the water. It has helped a bit but wondering what else I could treat them with? They are in a nice big pen dry. The weather here in ca. has been so crazy this year from hot to cold and I think its taken its toll on the birds. They are eating well also drinking well too. their dropings look well too some might have a little yellow in them. I have heard that when chickens get a cold its really hard for them to get better. Any information you can give me will be greatly appreciated thanks so much lilcookie

I don't understand the question - - "What else can I treat them with . . . "

Are they still showing signs of being sick?
