I have Corid (amprolium) 9.6% Oral Solution Coccidiostat for calves.
My flock is not having an outbreak of Coccidiosis but I want to give the 21-day prevention dose.
I want to put the Corid in their drinking water. The bottle gives a prevention dose of the rate of 8 floz per 100 gallons. But...
…. water that has Corid in it? I'm on day 2 of treating for coccidiosis. The weather is about to heat up BIG time. I have never had to treat for coccidiosis before.
My chickens are 3 months and 2 weeks old. I make up a new batch of Corid water every day.
Thank you for your help!
My 3 month old wyondette i noticed yesterday outside she was laying down, feathers puffed, bloody stool and not eating or drinking. I gave her some corid and brought her inside. By that night she was drinking by herself and trying to eat and also standing up, a huge improvement from earlier in...
I have about 55 teens (16 weeks old) mostly girls -- we came home two weeks ago to one dead under the coop. No sign of injury, no lethargy. Nothing. Just dead --
Three or four days later, another one was dead beside the steps (looked like it had fallen off the steps). Again, no sign of...
Hello. Our hens' fecal float came back positive for cestode protozoa. Our vet prescribed Corid (3ml/gal) for 5 days. I assume that's for the protozoa, and FWIW our hens don't show any signs of bloody stools (cocci). Just some slightly runny poo.
I had to look up cestode to figure out that it's...
Hi all,

3 Silkies almost 10 week old
8 large fowl babies about 3 weeks old
1 large fowl baby about 5 weeks old
Our coop is approx 85sf and our run is approx 160sf. We are in the process of building...
1) What type of bird , age and weight (does the chicken seem or feel lighter or thinner than the others.)
Hen d’uccle. So she’s very small to begin with but I can feel her very pointy keel(?) bone. I got her 8 months ago. She’s roughly a year.
2) What is the behavior, exactly.
She started with...
I just got four - 4 week old chicks last week. 2 - Cream Crested Legbars, 1 - Olive Egger and 1 Welbar. When I got the chicks home I did notice one chick (one of the CCL's) was smaller but thought maybe it was just younger. Now 1 week has gone by and it really doesn't seem like this chick is...
I ordered 25 chicks from Murray. I ordered the full vaccine profile (Marek's and Coccidia) because I thought, why not? I received 25 live and healthy, but chilled, chicks. 2 days later, one previously healthy one started to fade. He had "pasty butt" and I thought, "Oh, no, coccidia!" I ran to...
I'm having difficulty diagnosing my hen.
She has very smelly yellow/green diarrhea, lethargic, hardly eats/drinks, looks depresed, lost a lot of weight, and is acting cold (even when it's not). Been going on for a little over a week. At first I was thinking Coccidiosis, but her diarrhea doesn't...
Hey BYC lovers, looking for some advice! I'm wondering why 3 of my pullets (2 are 9 MONTHS OLD and NOT Laying yet, one is laying), are puffing up their chests. I thought it was just in the morning, but now I noticed a couple doing it this afternoon. It's not freezing, in fact today was...

I have one pullet that isn't doing so well. She's having a hard time walking around and looks a little lethargic.
I picked up some corid, probiotics and electrolytes.
She's been drinking some of both, but am I suppose to be giving corid to my other 3 hens as well? Even though they're acting...
First time chicken mom here. I have BLRW chicks of varying ages. My babies were pooping blood so I treated them for Coccidiosis with one week of Corid. Everyone seems good but I read here on BYC that it's a good idea to give them probiotics after treatment. I got the Sav-a Chick probiotic and...
Looking for advice. Two of my 7 3 week old chicks seem to be ruffled and lethargic, eyes slightly closed at all times, still eating, drinking, but no bloddy stools. I know that for a moderate Coccidiosis outbreak it is 1 teaspoon I put it in a gallon of room temperature water and they are now...
I'll try and keep this short. Last week I got some day old OEG banties. A few have had pasty butt. 1 got very weak and weighed nothing. She died that night. I woke up to another dead chick who previously seemed fine. They've been active and eating/drinking fine as far as I've seen. A few of them...
Need help! My red star, Mrs. Featherbottom, has been acting off. She was producing her usual enormous eggs, then April 15 stopped laying and eating normally, and began acting lethargic. I treated the flock for worms and added Corid to their water on the advice of my vet. She perked back up. A...
