I would like to know what age you start kids on Co-Rid and what doses you use. If you dose them up until they are a year old, is it ok to do if they are bred? Also how often do you give it and do you follow with probiotics? Any other additional info would be great.

Recommended dose: " Amprolium 50 mg/kg body weight per head per day for 5 days.(*NOTE: This dose is five times the recommended calf dose.)"-Pugh

Calf dose:90cc Corid-16 oz(or 480cc) of water give at a rate of 30cc/100# btw. NOT STRONG ENOUGH!!

Here are the drugs recommended-Pugh- for coccidiostats used for Treatment & Prev. of coccidiosis in small ruminants.

Monensin 10-30 gram/ton of feed-approved goats, may be most effective choice for goats.

Subject: Corid Treatment
If you are going to use the corid, use it at the following rates and syringe it into each kid according to weight.
Don't use water treatement the kids will not drink enough of the water.

Treatment dose....use once a day for 5 days..no less.Use it full strength...no water! The "calf dose" isn't strong enough for goats.

Doses below are 50mg/kg (2.2#)....recommended treatment levels for caprines.

6cc/25#
12cc/50#
18cc/75
24/100#
