Mixing antibiotics with supplements

[Schmidt Hill Farm]

I have super sick chickens. One has already died and a necropsy is being performed as we speak. In the meantime, I have been dozing my chickens with all-in-one powder. It has Ronidazole, typos in, levamisole and Amprolium. I’m wanting to add supplements and electrolytes for an extra boost. I have Backyard Boost Defense I plan on mixing in there water. Will that be okay or is there something else I should do?

It would be best to follow the treatment instructions on the All-in-One package which recommend 5 days administration. Then after 5 five days, you can give your birds the Boost.
Additionally, the All-in-One contains Amprolium which treats coccidiosis. The Boost contains Thiamine. The Thiamine would interfere and possibly negate the Amprolium treatment for coccidiosis, if that's what your sick chickens might possibly have.

Okay. Thank you. I don’t know what they have. Hopefully I’ll have answers tomorrow

The lady said that her educated guess is that it’s coccidia. She is waiting for some more labs to come back and I’m taking some samples of poo to a vet tomorrow to get them tested.

I've dealt with coccidiosis, to include blood in feces. It's a killer and I lost quite a few chicks to it late last year and earlier this year. It was confirmed by necropsy as well.
I gave the chicks Corid (Amprolium), Sulfadimethoxine, SMZ/TMP, and Toltrazuril all to no avail.
