Gosh, I have a sick chick in with my broody hen, Buff, and 8 other chicks. They are 4 weeks old today.
My lavender orp chick is puffed up and I think has coccidiosis. She is still eating
Questions I have:
How do you treat with Corid (amount/ length of time)?
Should I give electrolytes and probiotics with the corid in the water too?
Should I leave her with the others and treat all together?
Or, separate her to treat her separately (preventing exposure to the others) and also treat the rest of the chicks with Buff.
They are on clean grass in there chick brooder tractor coop outside.
I will clean their hutch part of the coop this afternoon, so it is clean before they go to bed.
Any advice on this would be great, if you have time!
I've been meaning to update everyone how well things are going, but, this is the first misshap I've had. After 5 groups of chicks, I have never had this happen before... worried.
Thank you thank you!
