    Tylan 50 injectable taken orally?

    She has a cold. And she weighs about 5 lbs. Shes average size. She was really struggling breathing. So we seperated her. And did all the other suggestions such as vetRX and booster in her water etc...she just wasn't getting better. So I'm wanting to try the Tylan to see if that helps.

    Amoxicillin and chickens

    Can the powder be added to the water vs injections? We are unable to hold this rooster. He's a rescue and has never been handled. I'm hoping we can use the water. Cause we really do want to help him feel better.

    Amoxicillin and chickens

    I have a Rooster that we rescued. He has a cold and I'm wondering if I can put some of my amoxicillin capsule powder in his water if I seperate him. He is a big boy and won't let us catch him or hold him. Though we are able to separate him from the girls. I think the amoxicillin is 500mlgrams...
