Hi all,
I've been searching the forum threads for answers about antibiotics and ducks but still have questions.
I see lots of recommendations for Baytril, but as it is not readily available (will order for future) I'm wondering about usage of Amoxicillin,
Cephalexin, Penicillin and Corid, all of which can be gotten at our local feed store.
For others who might have access to different antibiotics, what any information about safe and effective antibiotics for ducks besides Baytril might be helpful as well if anyone has knowledge they can share.
Currently I have duck with a swollen lower leg and foot (she's been on enclosure rest, Meloxicam internally, Vetericyn topically but it's time to try a stronger approach), but I'm interested in information about antibiotics for ducks in general and think it would be helpful to have a localized thread on this topic (if we already have one I'm sorry I did not find it, please feel free to direct me there and we can let this one die)
