Whoa - so the FDA says don't use this at all in layers? Wow. I think maybe we need to make note of that - Tylan is recommended here a lot [that's why I bought it]. Now I'm wondering if I've ruined all my layers? I am having bad chicken luck these days, that's for sure! Kelly

LOL - well, my search came up with everything from "no need to wait" to "discard for 7-10 days" to "discard for 2 weeks". Guess I'll discard for 2 weeks to be 100% safe! Kelly

I don't see it anywhere on the package label. Kelly

Does anyone know?

We just treated our whole flock with Tylan to cure an eye infection they were passing around [it worked great BTW!]. They finished the course yesterday. For how long should I discard the eggs before they are safe to eat again after treatment? Thanks! Kelly

Oddly enough, here is a YouTube video of dyed easter chicks. Weird. I've never seen such a thing either! Kelly

[I haven't started the treatments yet BTW - still waiting on a consensus opinion. I'm going to start just Rainbow tomorrow]. Kelly

Thanks everyone. I am now really confused. I feel so dumb... I don't have any birds with any nasal symptoms at all - the only one that has anything wrong now is Rainbow, with the swollen eye. The other pullet that kept her one eye closed for a few days is fine now. So, it sounds...

I am treating my flock "just in case" [see this thread for more details if you want them: https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=200081 ]. I have VetRX and Tylan powder [water soluable] to give them now since the mail came . Can I give both at once or no? Thanks for any...

I feel for you! My sister has a black australorp just like this - she's been bald in patches since November. Otherwise she is healthy, happy and lays almost every single day [she lays 21 days straight, takes one day off and lays another 21 days!]. Her bald spots have moved over the months...

Well, Rainbow's eye is still swollen shut. Some of the swelling has gone down - I am not sure her eye is still there though the more I look at it. None of the others have gotten sick. That one little pullet was keeping one of her eyes closed sometimes, but yesterday and today she's been...

I've spent most of the day researching MG, and it really does not sound like what my birds have. I'm taking a "wait and see" approach [and I've contacted the friends I've given birds to to tell them to be on the lookout for any symptoms] for now, but I'm going to stop panicking. Rainbow [the...

[Oh, and I'm not usually such a basket case, but imagining having to put down all of my children's beloved pets was just a bit much for this soft hearted mama. ] Kelly

THANKS! No, it isn't green or crusty, it must be the coloring in the pic. It just looks swollen [we thought at first it was weasel trauma, but there isn't any tearing or bite marks, just swelling]. A friend of mine reminded me that I've been having a mold problem in their coop because...

Oh no! I had NOT seen anything about MG till I just read this thread you are talking about. Oh my goodness. How do I diagnose this? I'm going to look up our state vet and give them a call. I am just about to throw up - IF this is what my birds have, then I have unwittingly given away...

It has no odor at all. I've read the site extensively, I can't find anything that describes an illness just with the eye thing - usually there are other symptoms [smell, nasal discharge, breathing problems, diarrhea, etc]. that's why this has me baffled. Kelly

I have a hen with a swollen eye. At first we thought it was from a weasel attack, or an injury, but I'm thinking now that it may be something infectious rather than an injury. I have one other pullet who is just keeping her left eye closed - it isn't swollen or anything, but she's keeping it...

Hey Guys - these eggs are no longer for sale. I posted this thread a week ago and when I got no response, I sold the eggs elsewhere [didn't want them to go bad ]. I've since decided to get out of breeding altogether. Sorry! I hope you do find some nice ones elsewhere, because EEs rock...

I wish you luck. I can't seem to sell eggs to save my life! I have a beautiful flock of "pure" Easter Eggers [most of them are Ameraucanas] and I also have a very high quality flock of pure Cuckoo Marans, and I can't sell eggs from either flock! [I was looking to make $6-8 per dozen, $6...

I have one dozen Easter Egger Eggs ready to ship tomorrow [Monday]. Easter Eggers [also called Ameraucana or Americana or Auracana mistakenly by many Hatcheries] are wonderful chickens! Aside from the obvious “cool factor” that they lay green and blue eggs, they are also extremely bright...
