RE: [CHICKENS-101] sick chicken

 

What do you use for Cocci? I have heard Sulmet. Where do I find it?

Cocci!!! Get her on a med for coccidiosis asap. Really common after adding new chickens. She needs a hospital cage or box with a light she can get under or away from. Hand feed her if you have too. I take plain yogurt mix in feed until I can make little balls with it. She will be weak so give her plenty of time to swallow. Feed her drops of med water, once, made stronger. Example: Before you mix her a quart of water, make a 1/4 cup and feed her 5-6 drops of it, then use the rest to make up her water dish. Time is not on your side.
