What do you do with the Baytril ?

I am using betadine and triple antibiotic. So far not down her throat. But am scared it will go there. she is under a red warm lamp, Should I give her baytirl now ???

I would *not* give Baytril unless I saw a secondary bacterial infection brewing. Weight daily and if losing weight, tube, that's what I would do. Also check for lice and mites and treat accordingly.

Click on Gross Lesions next to the Clinical Signs and it shows the nodules on the body. I saw that the lesions can be in the feather pockets.
