Wait for the callback...ask about meds and what @casportpony
mentioned on the numbers...anything under 100 need not be treated?
I didn't see cocci on the results.

When they called they said cocci but he didn't give me a specific treatment, just referred me to anyone else.

Oh, forgot to mention, one can give the Equimax paste very easily. How many chickens do you have?

The report said few, yes? Maybe a good idea to treat the one?

I only brought in samples of a few. I didn't see concern in all of them, although that probably would have been wise! I have 11 chickens. They didn't have equimax at the feed store I went to. Just Corid and Wazine so I grabbed those and started with Wazine treatment in their water. I don't want to over treat them but hoping that will at least be a good start.

That sounds like a good plan.

Thank you Kathy!

No cost dropping off the samples and they didn't say about the cost of necropsy, but said if one was dying, that would be the best time to bring one in. But they could do diagnostics on a corpse too! They were super helpful and will be emailing me the results! That would be pretty great if they told me species too.

Congrats.

You shouldn't need the Corid.

 

[ChxLadyCass]

Congrats.



You shouldn't need the Corid.

No? The doc said they have coccidiosis.

Try the Wazine to see if the poop returns to normal. In a few days.
