My duck Nutmeg is going to the vet tomorrow for leg issues and will possibly be put on medication, either for pain or for infection possibly. Maybe both? I know it's not safe to eat their eggs if they're on antibiotics, but would I be correct in assuming her eggs would also not be suitable for incubation? What if it's just pain meds and not antibiotics? I feel like the meds would possibly be transferred to the embryos and potentially affect them negatively. Just wondering if anyone knows for sure since I was planning on starting to incubate some of my girls' eggs later this week. Should I assume only the eggs up until she starts the meds would be ok to incubate? It would be ideal if I could get a few more days' worth of eggs from her before the incubation, but I don't want to risk harm to potential embryos.
I feel like this is a dumb question that I already know the answer to, but just humor me.
