They'll never grow with this formulation. It's an imbalanced formula.

EMMAACHILE:

Which drugs have you given to them?

diclosole last week and maxicocc this week

bigthingz:
diclosole last week and maxicocc this week

I advise you take other drugs like embazin forte and use the right dosage (3ml/5 liters) for three days.

High or low dosage could make your chicks resistant to the diclosol.
The recommended dosage and Administration is below and its given continuous for 2 days

Add 1 ml DICLOSOL liquid / 4 liters of drinking water (2.5ppm) for 48 hrs.

In severe cases :
Add 1 ml DICLOSOL liquid / 2 liters of drinking water (5ppm) for 48 hrs.

EMMAACHILE:
What I still suspect is still temperature of this season and feed.
Coccidiosis affects the growth of chickens

Thanks

bigthingz:
diclosole last week and maxicocc this week

I'll advice you administer alongside with Admacine in case it happens to be enteritis. It has similar symptom with coccidiosis

My birds are dying. I discovered fowl pox infection in some birds about two weeks ago. Treated them with Pox off, Viramix and Antibiotics for about 4days, I gave them once in a day and thereafter give them Vitamin(Samovit plus Superliv), but I discovered that few were not eating again as they ought to. I suspected that the combination was too powerful, so I stopped and continue with the vitamin.
However, the birds(layers and cockerel) are still lacking appetite and are dying.
I also noticed that there is reduction in egg size, thus affecting my selling price.
What can I do to rectify this problem.
NB: The cockerels were not having signs of the pox, I only gave them as preventive measures. I vaccinated them together.
I also have broilers', although younger than the duo, but there were not affected as I never gave them the drug.
Thanks

4dead comb turns whitish watery greenish white mixture a private feed mill(samsol) approved animal care formula I've been giving them for a month plus, and i give same to the broilers

The watery white/green poop means the chicks are not eating well. Its better you serve some good multivitamin with a chick mash feed. If possible, buy a commercial (Chick Mash) to confirm whether its from the feed.

White comb? Could be favus, a fungus
What others Signs apart from the White comb? Powdery spots/wrinkled crusts, Feather loss, Thick crusty skin or Loss of condition.

1) you have to be wary of them feed millers. No biosecurity whatsoever in place.

2) Looks like you have a case of NCD on your hands

I will recommend gumbocine to treat it in case it is a fungal infection.

I agree. Admacine or Gumbocine + Polidine for 5 days should do the trick. After which he'd have to administer La Sota to the whole flock.

Lasota vaccine again?

Yessir. Lethargy has set in alongside green poo. Those are pointers. The Fowlpox is something else all together which can be treated after they must have improved.

their bags come with an animal care seal, but i will still need to watch out also.
NCD? i seriously hope not.
thanks, will work on the 2points raised.

Turks and EMMAACHILE, thanks, will work on your suggestions and revert back here.

should i administer the La Sota immediately(6th day) or after how many days?

OlujobaSamuel:

Its best on the 7th day. The 6th day should be clean water

No sir. Give plain water on the 6th day. And then give La Sota on the 7th
