Very very sick silky rooster

[Rhon]

I have a silk rooster. A week ago he quite crowing and was slow moving. I started him on Duramycin. He seemed to pick up a little. I went out of town and and the family did not continue to treat him. 5 days later, he is fluffed up falling over, quite eating. I was told to treat him with Corrid for cocoidocis. I treated him for 2 days but he is worse. Should I give him apple cider vinegar with the Corrid or stop the corrid and start the duramycin again? I don't know if he will make it over the weekend if I don't do something quickly. His poop is pasty white

ACV isn't going to do anything for whatever he's got going on. If he showed improvement on the antibiotic's then that's what I'd do and make sure he finishes a full course. It sounds like he relapsed because he didn't get the meds long enough. You may not be able to save him but it's worth a shot.
