Amprolium does not work for every strain of coccidia. This particular strain seems to be one of them. Yes, I was already using the 2 tsp of powder and doing oral drenching. They are dying too quickly for anything I'm doing to even have time to work. I have never seen Coccidiosis this bad or this...

Isn't it better to wait until the hen is older (at least 2/3 yrs old) to begin hatching from them? Could of swore I read that somewhere

Problem is I don't want to use the entire bag. That would be incredibly wastful

They are all between 3-5 wks old. This year has been especially hard on me and my tiny farm. I ordered chicks from Meyers that did not fair well in shipping and of 47 chicks 16+ died within 5days most died with 2 days. Then there is the silkies I'm dealing with at the moment with this ridiculous...

Thank you. Wondering if Serama's are similar to sex as cochin Bantams. Fairly easy? And around 2/3 weeks for most part you will be able to tell male and female apart?

So w I have Acidified Copper sulfate. I see everywhere here too add 1/4 tsp ACS to one gallon of water and give that to drink. Is that still to strong?

Seems this year is a pretty hard year for me and my flock. I am in middle Tennessee. Currently experiencing a particularly lethal strain of Coccidiosis on my farm that corrid is ineffective against. I'm overwhelmed and stressed to the max. I was finally gifted some very expensive and long...

If you make the 1/4 tsp ACS in a gallow of water is that what you give to them to drink or is that solution supposed to diluted again?

Got three Serama chicks recently. Curious what color variety they are. There is one that I'm pretty sure will be blue mottled, another that is white? not sure if that is the proper term. And then the one that appears to be Barred? Wasn't aware their is a Barred variety of Serama's prior to...

Updates on sexes for those chicks?

Very young. Maybe too young but wasn't sure if someone with more experience with this breed might know some nuances about them that I'm not privy to? Two chicks maybe a week or two old

Very interesting. I actually just purchased some CCL chicks and was noticing that some of the females actually had light dots on their heads. Which from what I was reading happens from time to time.

OmGoodnes! I can't! They are just the cutest things EVER! Those little puffy cheeks get me EVERY TIME! LOL Curious if you are a breeder or if you purchased them? And what color their shanks are at this age? I'm guessing that the lighter ones are the self blue and the darker ones are the...

Would love to see pictures of everyone's true bantam Ameraucana's, especially in Self Blue/Lavender. Also interested in looking at standard Ameraucana's. Would love to see examples of down color and shank/feet color

Agree on the Orpingtons (really any color Orpington though) BUT my Easter eggers are the loudest cackling bunch there ever was! Lol 😆
