What to do???

Not sure that's true...

Talked to a Vet at the University of Alberta...Too true...They do not give wrong information....I hope the OPs birds get better...Mine were the same...One got sick and then like rungs on a ladder they all got it...They were fine for about two months....Just got it back again two days ago..This time seems worse...No deaths yet. I run a heat lamp and do let them out a few times each day in the run as not to cause them too much stress...
Bio-security is something I will never gamble with again....

FYI, UC Davis *can* test for all the respiratory diseases without doing a necropsy. Not sure why the university you work with can't, but the CAHFS labs at UC Davis can.

So can you tell me how long before the egg production will pick back up? Also what is the correct dosage for everything then? I have just a couple that every once in awhile still cough but the rest seem totally fine. Do I need to reside with anything?

What dosing info are you looking for?

Well for Corid, the oxytetracycline and the Safequatrd. Because I have the classics 3ml of that and I take it that was incorrect. Also how long does it take to rebound to normal egg production again? Also should I have gave something again after so many days?

Which oxytetracyline do you have? Is your Corid powder or liquid?

And the Corid is 9.6 liquid how many days of the safeguard I read 1 day and then I read 3 days and do any of these need to be repeated after so many days? Also how long before egg production picks up from respiratory illness

With the Safeguard, what worms did you want to treat?

Well I read at the time in the symptoms my chickens where having that it might have been gapeworms and they said this would of treated this. So I used the 3mls diluted in water

Quote: and I think I replied that 3 ml/gallon of Safeguard will not treat gapes.

Not sure who started that misinformation.

Pet peeve of mine. If I were going to treat one of mine I would give 0.23 ml orally for five days.
