Welcome rookie..., here is a quick list:
1: 4in1 2: Sulmet Liquid 3: Neomycin 325 4: Wormer 5: Chloratetracycline
Of course the old saying an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure:
1: Probiotics (Probios and Winsmore combined or ProVital alone) 2: Keep a dry loft 3: Keep mice out 4: Avoid overcrowding
Can anyone add to this list? ---------- FLY ON! Tony Chavarria

Tony, If prevention is key,then I would definetly choose vaccinations.P.M.V,Sal Bac,Pox coupled with keeping lower numbers of birds[like you mentioned].Probably cocciodosis is the most common disease you'll see ,Corid is good for that,again at keeping illness at bay.....Aloha,Todd
