This is a technical discussion thread where a farmer questions the dosage of vitamins in a poultry vaccination schedule, fearing overdose issues, while another user provides a clarification on timing. The thread lacks engagement metrics and promotional content, focusing strictly on animal husbandry management.
“Thank you, I have following your vaccine prescription but don't you think your vitamin prescription is too much seeing that the boiler's starter has vitamin and overdose of vitamin to broiler can lead to massive faeces?”
“No, just 30mins to 1hr.”
