When to Corrid and when to try other things?

When you use Corid, do not give any vitamins to your birds that contain thiamine. Corid is a thiamine blocker.

Thank you-this was some of the info I was looking for. I was worried giving corrid less than 24 hours after a mega-vitamin dosage would cause the Corrid not to work or to make the chicken more sick in some way. I will keep a special eye out for thiamine in the vitamins I use.

my gut reaction to your vitamin question specifically is go ahead with Corid asap. From having been struggling with a significant loss of flock to several death topics over the last year plus.... I have gained a lot of help from several folks in here..... I have learned a few search words to find threads with similar symptoms and then scan them for relevant advice or if possible repeated advice from other threads....

FYI here are a few threads that i have saved for struggles like this for you....

in this thread are folks giving suggested user ID's to tag and ask for advice/help.....

making sure she stays hydrated is very serious too....
here is a thread I found and shared my experience from their wisdom....

best of luck to you.....

Thank you for these links! I really appreciate the help. Unfortunately that little gal did not make it, and it may have been because I did not get her Corrid quickly enough.
