Very Lethargic 2 month old chicken

General notes to whoever has sick birds whoes wings drooped eyes stay shut, lay with there beaks supporting their heads with tails in the air. This was how I dealt with it right or wrong. I did wait too long to piut them on meds for cRD so

I ended up with 17 total losses # 16 & 17. Were one of my pairs CCM roo and pullett! Week one antibiotics only took care of half the problem half perked up half did not! After another 5 days on Sumet all but three were still showing signs of sickness. I started them on amprol 128 at 24 % dosage. After 3 days all signs are gone that any were sick. I'm crossing my fingers!

Sorry you lost so many...

For those that might not know, Amprol 128 is the same as 20% Corid Powder, both are used to treat coccidiosis and the .024% dose for either is 1.5 teaspoons per gallon.

Thank you Kathy.....Guess I should have explained a little better...
Your post was great, just wanted people to know that what you used is sold under other names as well.
