Trouble with Corid dosage

[Nmoriel]

I am confused about the treatment dosage of Corid for chicks. I’ve read different dosage amounts in different locations including discussions posted here and I do not know which to use. ( BTW: I’m using the powder)
Please help

This is what works for me, and what I’m currently using on a ~ 2 month old pullet! I haven’t messed anybody up yet.

Thank you. Have you given this dosage to chicks before?

Welcome To BYC

Always give the "outbreak" dosing for Poultry. It's the same regardless of age since it's dependent on the birds to drink what they normally would.

Are your chicks sick? Do they have symptoms?
Photos of them and their poop may be helpful.


Liquid Corid dose is 2tsp or Powdered Corid Dose is 1 1/2tsp per gallon of water given for 5-7 days as the only source of drinking water.
Do not add any extra vitamins/electrolytes that contain B1(Thiamine) to food or water during the course of treatment.

No… but what Wyorp Rock says makes lots of sense!
