    Respiratory infection symptoms are runny eyes, sneezing, coughing, mild to severe. The synoviae is an aggravated feature of the respiratory disease.

    Amoxicillin is a good all purpose, broad spectrum antibiotic. Fish meds work fine for chickens and don't require a prescription. The daily dose is 250mg for a standard adult chicken. So you would need to divide this 500mg pill in half. I used to get 250mg amoxicillin from this place...
