PSA - Baycox/Endocox for Coccidiosis

[amnich1]

I was also looking for a drench dose and got 3mg/lb from another post on here, apparently that was the amount given from a vet. I dissolved into 1mL (which is an arbitrary amount) only because it was a small volume that was easy for me to syringe into her. It was easy to dissolve so there is some room in that ratio before the solution saturates, if you were inclined to use a smaller volume or if your bird is heavier to require more than 5mg total. It worked for me in a pinch but I’m curious to hear how the math actually works out since that might be a better estimate for you.

What is the difference between Endocox and Medicox? I just ordered Medicox! And saw this. Never mind, I looked it up. Endocox is Toltrazuril. I have given my hens toltrazuril and one seems worse, so I guess I'll try the Medicox. I am not sure if the Toltrazuril that I gave them is good, because it is hard to stir up. A lot of white stuff stays in the bottom of the bottle. Also, I noticed that I should have stored it below 70 degrees, and it's been in my house at 78 degrees.

I am quite tired of dealing with coccidiosis. Have tried Corid multiple times, then it comes back. I'm going to try Oxytetracycline tomorrow.

Thanks for listening.

Medicox is Sulfadimethoxine while Endocox is Totrazuril.

Do you have a thread about your chicks along with photos, symptoms, what/how you have treated, dosing, etc.
I can't find it if you do.

Been going on for more than a year, with multiple symptoms. Will respond in detail when I have time. Thank you for responding!

Is there a egg withdraw when giving Endocox powder?

This may be old news for folks outside the US, but within the US our most common treatment of coccidiosis is corid (amprolium). I recently introduced several new chickens to my flock all on Medicated feed, one came down with coccidiosis. Put her on corid as well as a prescription sulfa antibiotic from a vet for severe coccidiosis, but after 10 days of this there was no improvement. I very much thought she would not make it. I ordered Endocox from Jedds bird supply and gave her 5mg per day dissolved in 1ml water (she was not eating or drinking at this point, we were hand feeding). This was adjusted to body weight. In 3 days she was 100% recovered. Wanted to share this for others who are struggling with severe and possibly drug resistant coccidiosis. It has been a few weeks now with no relapse. She is good as new!

What about egg withdraw, endocox states FOREEVER

Welcome to BYC. Where does it say that?

Is there a egg withdrawal period with Endocox?
