If they have been fed starter then grower crumbles as chicks and young birds they should have developed a resistance to Cocci as both starter and grower have medicant in them to help develop that resistance starter to about 8-9 weeks then grower to the first egg is what I recommend |

Vets will have it or can get it in for you.Some produce stores may also have it. It is not a prescription medication as far as I am aware. |

Hi all, I bought a bottle of Baycox from my produce store on Friday afternoon and it was $240.00.They did a special order for me to get it. parvo, Am I correct in saying all chooks carry coccidiosis at all times but it is a stress factor that triggers it off. Say cold,rain,noise,over crowding or other contributing factors. It is always in the ceca (chickens gut)and small intestines. |
