aminuelyakub:
How many tablets per 3 liter drinker.

EMMAACHILE:
Avoid vit c

sammorad:
For dosage, I cannot authoritatively give u an answer, but for my laying birds i use 10 to 15 tablet to 80 liters of water.

Let me say dis again, remember i said this is a last resort and please do not mix vit c with any other drugs.

DO NOT MIX VIT C WITH ANY OTHER DRUG

At this point, I want to say a big thank you to all that have contributed to this thread especially Emma and Turks, I cant thank you enough.

I stocked 100 Zartec chicks with mortality at 2, they are 7 days now and their average weight is about 150g against their day 1 average weight of 40g. With your help, I was able to go very close (93%) to the standard target of gaining 4x day 1 weight at day 7.

Kudos! You guys are doing a very good job.

Proud Newbie!

Turks:
THEy look good. They shouldn’t be in that cubicle though. They need to be in a well ventilated environment else, CRD will set in.

aminuelyakub:
Thanks sir, the coop has a big opening on one side. I will send the picture for better analysis.

Turks:
Same with Chicks. It’s a great source of Calcium for them. Same with Oyster shell, Chicken egg etc.

Turks:

Morning sir,

I think my 9 days old zartech broilers are having CRD and Coccidia, I noticed them making a grugling sound and a light brown watery poop in pen.

I have been giving them amintotal and est mix wsp which I withdraw day before yestarday because I administered Lasota yestarday.

Please help!

Turks:
Morning sir. When did you notice the CRD? What’s your pen ventilation like? What’s your litter management like? Litter should be changed twice or three times a week to avoid ammonia build up as well as cocci infection. I think you have a litter management problem hence the onset of CRD and cocci at the same time. You don’t administer vitamins to birds down with cocci. It’s a death catalyst because of the vitamins B present in it.

However, Vitacox should be used in treating the cocci infection once the ventilation issue has been sorted. Vitacox is a 3-1-2 dosage. 3 days on the drug, one day of water, 2 days on eh drug. Please do not include vitamins as Vitacox contains Vitamins E, C and K needed for the healing of the bird’s ailing intestinal walls. Alternatively, you can give bitterleaf extracts, Cayenne’s pepper or Apple cider vinegar as organic substitutes, they work fine equally. Thank you.

My ventilation is fine as you certified it yestarday, but my litter management is poor, I havent changed the bedding and I equally suspect my smoky brooder. Will fixing my litter and smoky brooder stop the CRD? I started noticing slight symptoms of CRD day before yestarday but I tut the bird was panting.

CORRECT —> Sir, for the Vitacox, what I dont understand is the 3-1-2 dosage. Do you mean 3 days of vitacox in water, 1 day of plain water then 2 days of vitacox in water again?

One table spoon in 4litres —> And for the pepper, its available here in sun dried form. How can I prepare it, in what propption should I apply it and the duration please?

KINDLY WITHDRAW THE EST MIX. You can add the pepper in their feed. —> Can I continue to use the est mix wsp in combination with the above? (vitacox or pepper)

Thank you very much sir!

EMMAACHILE:
You look like a novice. You don't give antibiotic continuously like you are giving multivitamin.
