Hey guys happy Easter . Getting ready to go fishing again tonight, started planting some veggies and will be getting second coop set up to move the babies from bathroom shower brood room to their own coop tomorrow. I hope everyone is doing great.

Happy Easter to you too!
 
Looking good! Are you keeping them for yourself? I think you mentioned something about hatching some new broodfowl.
That miner pullet that hatched out 10 lost one, it just seemed week from the start, but she adopted 13 chicks from the incubator that hatched the same day. One big happy family!
yes I'm keeping these I also have a pair of solid blue about to hatch I'll keep a few of those too.

I have 10 kelso eggs under a grey ima prolly just keep a stag or two of those to replace their father that's old

I need another R/H stag and 2 or 3 pullets out the 9 chicks I have now

If the new eggs do good I'll keep a pair of Albany and only the cross stags
 
I am not sure Oxytetracycline acts on Cocci very well.

Corid (amprolium) seems to be more effective against the cocci bacteria. A vet should be able to write an Rx for it. Oxytetracycline is more of a generalist and may just get you past the infection by taking care of the other issues, as Doubleleft said.

Check it out, a lot of people are unaware of how good oxytetracycline is on coccidia because it is advertised more as a general antibody.
I much prefer oxytetracycline over corid.
Buddy of mine had an outbreak of coccidia/snotty nose/respiratory problems with about 20 to 30 young fowl free-ranging and he did away with many of them and used everything(i mean everything from Baytril to the kitchen sink)(including corid and 5 or 6 other meds) and he told me when it was over, that oxytetracycline turned out to be the best med he used(he was using injectible) I use a heavy dose the soluble Oxy powder whenever needed, which is very seldom, but try to keep some on hand just in case.
