Scary amount of bloody diarrhea! Just left the Avian Vet with Phosphorus and negative stool sample tests for parasites and Cocc. Please HELP!

Undiluted Corid or amprollium can be given as a boost dose once or twice a day at 0.1 ml per pound of weight. But it is always given in the water as well. Dosage is 2 tsp of the Corid liquid or 1.5 tsp of the powder per gallon of water for 5 days. It is found in feed stores in the catrle medicines. Food can be sprinkled with the medicated Corid water if they are eating. I also wonder about the phosphorus suggestion. Did they give it to you or tell you to buy it? Phosphorus is in a lot of foods, and the balance of calcium and phosphorus is important to keep in the right balance.

They prescribed it to me.

Update: done oral flush twice by mouth, also in water correct dosage, and they have gone from huddled with eyes closed for 2 days, to all of them eating again and chirping!
I hope I can get them healed with this stuff, using daily.
Thanks again.

Thank you for the update. Is their poop clearing up?

Prayers for you and your peeps!

No advice, just really feeling for you and your birds. I hope they continue to improve.

Yes I’m noticing the poop is only bloody (mostly blood, and white mucus) in the mornings. Yesterday they all 3 had solid brown poo during the day and were finally eating and moving into the sunshine instead of sitting huddled up together not moving around. Thank you! They are 10 weeks old. My little silkie rooster has stopped crowing, and it’s the saddest thing! Hoping I can get them relief.

Glad you are seeing improvement. I hope it continues in that direction and that your little man gets his groove back.

Also, I read somewhere on here, maybe it was @Wyorp Rock , that you can do 3 days at 2x daily with the direct dose of corid. If you need to go beyond that perhaps seek more advise from those more knowledgeable like

@Wyorp Rock or
@Eggcessive

They have lots of experience and may be able to direct you in this matter.

I always recommend the maximum dosage which is listed in post 11.
