The packet I have says neomycin sulfate.

Thanks,I'll take a look

That was my thought..but not sure

I've read the threads here on treating bumble foot with tricide neo. One question I have and didn't see it addressed. Is there an egg withdrawal needed? TIA

We are similar with a 10×10 shed/8 hens. There is cross ventilation near ceiling. Different than most, I do close up all windows and doors after they are settled for the night...including their run access door. Curtains over windows. There is a steady breeze and I don't trust it will make for...

Just add more. I soak about 1/2 a bag in just enough water to expand it ..about once a month and lightly rake it in. I now use it in the nest boxes too.
