Vitamins necessary after Corid treatment?

[Jenbirdee]

Just gave my three hens five days of Corid water,
Should i give them vitamins now? What kind? How much? For how long?
(3 chocolate Orpington hens 2 and 3 years old, weights around 8 pounds each)

It really isn't necessary but you can give them a poultry nutrient booster for a few days. You could use poultry nutri-drench or rooster booster or whatever you have locally. The amprolium in the Corid is a thiamine inhibitor so make sure thiamine is included as one of the nutrients in the booster.

Because you're treating for potential intestinal lining damage, I would offer probiotics to help rebalance the gut. You can give them some kefir, Greek yogurt or a little buttermilk in a mash made from their feed. They also offer probiotics in powder form for chickens. Check your local farm store.

I have this but don’t see any b1 in it. I also have poultry cell, and nutridrench, I don’t see b1 in the Nutri drench either.

Rooster Booster has thiamine in it. Again, I don't think that's absolutely necessary. They only had it inhibited for the treatment. It's enough to kill off the coccidia but not harm the bird.
The Rescue 911 looks like a good supplement to promote gut rebalance.

Both Poultry Cell and NutriDrench contain thiamine (aka B1).

The general recommendation for treating coccidiosis is 5 days at full (outbreak) dose (2 tsp liquid Corid per gallon water), and an additional 7-14 days at the lesser (preventative) dose (1/2 tsp per gallon).

Your product pic does look like a good option for intestinal support (as Dobie mentioned).

Thanks, so what I did was this morning: I gave them yogurt and sprinkled some probiotic powder on their feed, and used poultry cell in their water. Tomorrow I’ll give them Recover 911
