I'm sorry about your hen. I don't know what that would have been. To find out more a necropsy and testing would give you some answers.

If the fishzole is not taking care of it, then it may not be canker. It would be good if your vet can perform a culture to see what you are dealing with so you can get the right treatment.

The only difference you might see is how many mg each product contains.

Aviotrich is Metronidazole - the same as FishZole (metronidazole).

Did it look simlar like any of the photos in post#4 of the thread below? Any bad odor? https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/hen-who-clicks-when-she-breathes-and-has-yellowish-white-lump-on-her-lip-canker-please-help-me-fi.771767/

I would follow the instructions in this post - sounds like it's worth a try :) https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/lethargic-gal-with-weird-symptoms.1436444/post-23767258

Do you see anything inside her beak? I would not just administer the FishZole without seeing evidence of canker inside the beak.

Extra Saliva sounds like a crop issue or she's got something like canker inside the beak:idunno The other hen, if she has the symptom Ascites, then draining her may make her more comfortable. Unfortunately, whatever the cause of the symptoms is still going to exist.

The oil might be a little crusty mixed with dirt if you are feeling around the oil gland. Does she have access to dirt so she can take a dust bath? Can she still not eat/drink on her own?

There's usually a little oil on the feathers around the preening gland. If you press on it a little, oil will come out too. Hard to see anything about the skin. Not sure what you mean about feeling her crop and the skin felt very fat. Was the crop full or ? I'm sorry she's not improving.

Yes, Safeguard is Fenbendazole.

Drooling is often due to a crop issue. Keep in mind that most crop issues are a symptom of an underlying condition. Reproductive disorders, infection, worms and coccidiosis are a few conditions that can cause a crop issues as well. I would finish the Baytril since you started it. Starting...

So you have had Canker in your flock for years?

How did you know what correct dose to give her? Baytril 10% liquid dosage is 0.05ml per pound of weight given orally twice a day for 5-6 days. Baytril is banned for use in poultry, however sometimes vets will prescribe it using their best judgment. Just a note - no dairy products should be...

If she has bubbly eyes the she probably has the respiratory illness the other ones have. Doxycycline is an antibiotic and it is used to treat symptoms of Mycoplasma as mentioned previously in this thread. https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/beak-filing.1431069/post-23696885 Hopefully the...

Well, the saliva/mucous is a concern, not sure what's causing that, it would seem that the antibiotics would have cleared up bacterial infection if she was getting a proper dose. Yeast/fungal infection (crop issue), canker (protozoa) or some other issue may be at play. Even if a crop is...

Sounds like she's doing fine then. Maybe stop the tube feeding and see how it goes.

No lesions or canker inside the beak?

Doxycycline and ?Tetracycline are both commonly used to treat symptoms of Mycoplasma. Not all respiratory diseases are bacterial so an antibiotic may not help. You could try a different antibiotic like Tylosin to see if that makes a difference. Baytril is banned for the use in poultry so do...

Egg is fine :)
