treating chicken with coccidiosis. getting better but need to know about vitamin/mineral supplements

Don't supplement while treating for cocci... that's how the med works by blocking thiamine (if using Corid) to slow the growth of the cocci by starving it out.

What are you using to treat the coccidiosis?

 

[BamaB19]

Corid, 3/4 teaspoon per gallon of water. Not sure if that is correct ratio but after reading many articles, that is what I settled for. Thanks for the heads up about vitamin/mineral supplements! Slow but steady progress for this chicken.

Two tsp per gallon if using the liquid Corid, or 1.5 tsp of the powder Corid to a gallon is what most use for an outbreak.

I would go with the recommended dose that she gave...

and note that there are a couple dosage strengths. One is preventative and the other is treatment dosage. If I'm not mistaken there might also be a "drench" dosage.

I do trust and respect the previous posters advice per many prior encounters.

Hope your babies recover quickly!
