Is it safe to eat eggs while treating for coccidiosis?

[WillowChick]

I am treating my whole flock for coccidiosis (even though only 1 appears to have it) with Amprolium 9.6% (Corid, Amprol).

Can we still eat our chicken's eggs? It says for beef, to wait a week before slaughter. Is the solution dilute enough in chickens that it's safe to eat eggs and meat? It had chicken info on the bottle, but said nothing about egg or meat withdrawal.

Thanks so much!

There isnt an egg withdrawal period using corid (amprolium.) The eggs are safe to eat.

Thank you so much!!! I've looked at so many threads that had the same question and no clear answer. You've made my day.

I have another question, maybe you can answer that one too?

Q - Can I hatch eggs from hens and roosters who are being treated?

I have a broody who is not sick who desperately want to hatch some eggs.

Thank you so much!
