OLDYELLOW Posted February 22, 2011 Report Posted February 22, 2011 think van hee do a coli killer , but better to use something like bos pellets or oregio stim

greenlands Posted February 22, 2011 Report Posted February 22, 2011 Have a look at the link mate,hope it helps.The vet should have told your mate what he was prescribing and labelled the container. http://www.albertaclassic.net/chalmers1.php Lindsay.

Also the treatment - how much medication is to be given and for how long. Length of course of treatment should give a clue to when to expect improvement in the birds.

Guest peter4pm Posted February 22, 2011 Report Posted February 22, 2011 vaccinating against e coli saves a lot of trouble yes ..but even that is not 100%..birds can still get it .
Guest stb- Posted February 22, 2011 Report Posted February 22, 2011 yes ..but even that is not 100%..birds can still get it .of course they can as theres so many different strains of it but i think the vaccine covers the most common
korhil2 Posted February 22, 2011 Author Report Posted February 22, 2011 thanks all i will let him know, all he told me was the bottle had instructions only and cost him £59 !
