Please help out, I have completed administering antibiotics today.Now they are 7 days old, I was told to allow the chick rests 2 to 3 days before giving them gumboro vac. My questions are: 1. Am I on course? 2. How do I give gumboro vac? 3 what time of the day should them and should I withdraw water before giving them? 4.What should I give them the following day after gumbro vac. Looking forward to your assistance. Thanks abunch! |

crownzade: so many factors could be responsible for vaccine failure, ranging from impure water,vaccine source, method of administration, dose administered and of course the environmental factor To guide against the water impurity, dissolve considerable quantity of skimmed milk in the water, this is to neutralize the likely ions or contaminant in the water. To guide against vaccine failure as a result of source, do not patronize only one vet store, the reason why vaccination is mostly done twice is to make up for unvaccinated birds, so it becomes important to patronize at least 2 quality vet shop such that if one of the vaccines fail the other can make up for the failed one. To guide against vaccine failure as a result of administration, you need to know that the vaccine in itself are living organisms that have been conditioned to an inconvenience mode and as such bad administration is like you are inoculating the disease into the bird's system, having known this there's the need to prepare a good disinfectant incase of spillage,take about 5 mil of skimmed milk solution and release it all into the vaccine bottle and shake to ensure that the vaccine is well dissolved then take the needed quantity according to your stock. Dose to be administered is the number of birds u v got, if u have 250 birds don't manage 200 doses it must be complete for effective performance. Good knowledge of the environment is vital in a successfull vaccination,birds have a deep body tempetature of 40.5-42c , coupled with the kind of hot weather we have now, it becomes very important to ensure that the water to be used is chilled such that the temperature of the vaccine is still maintained until it reaches the bird system where it is expected to dissociate and starts combating pathogens that would want to cause that disease. It should be mentioned as well that antibiotics should not be used a day before vaccination so as not to destroy the live organisms. 6 Likes |

Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by davidzfarm18(m): 10:40pm On Aug 19, 2015 |
endy247:so many factors could be responsible. 1. Periodic boaster Laxota 4:6weeks 2. periodic deworming. 6:8wks 4. anti coccidial treatment. shd be periodic if on deep litres. 4. Regular treatment with antibiotics such as Neoceryl to wade off diseases. from the last forum i attended. i discovered that laying birds could be exposed to Fowl Typhoid minimum 2times a month 5. Regular vitamins and amino ac 3 Likes |

davidzfarm18:last lasota wz two weeks ago, normal faeces. They have lice bt i think i've given ivermectin too much for treating d lice. How else shld i treat it? D production is still dropping, feed consumptn dropped as well. |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by FarmTech(m): 12:59am On Aug 23, 2015 |
Annabechick:.. Keep it up. |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by FarmTech(m): 1:01am On Aug 23, 2015 |
endy247:.. If feed consumptn drop, it is a sign of hidden illness that's brooding. I'll say u give them antibiotics. When qwas the last time u gave them? .. Another thing. Do u normally cover the open sides at night? If not pls do so bc cold is toooooooo muuuuch and it will definitely affect them badly. Sleeping on bare cement without bedding will also chill them. Perches are good in this situatn. |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by abidecz: 10:31am On Aug 23, 2015 |
My chicks are diening pls hope I started using Kepcox yesterday pls what else can I do they are 5 weeks old |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by davidzfarm18(m): 1:32pm On Aug 23, 2015 |
endy247:If the birds still have lice, definitely u must do something about it, hence, the production will not peak. I advice you repeat the ivermectin using other brand aside the one you have tried. U should also consider doping them in MB50 solution same day(though a stressful operation) but it worked for me. it will crash the production but be sure it will build up steadily and you will enjoy the fruit of ur labour. Pls give the good vitamins after the treatment (promine) |
