I may be wrong or sound odd I recently switched a brand from my normal one because that wasn't available in store the chemist there said it's 10% baytril (enrofloxacin) and marked for poultry , dogs , cats and birds
I was treating one of my pet pigeon for respiratory infection ^mild^
But this...
I have a hen (1 1/2 year old bantam Cochin) who suddenly last week went to lay an egg, instead spewed nasty green diarrhea, and hasn’t been right since. She has been to the vet twice, worms and bacteria. I worked the flock, she is on amoxicillin. She went back to normal but then down hill again...
Two of my flock have green and yellow diarrhea. I did a test on one through RSA tested for mycoplasma, salmonella and E. coli. Test was positive for E. coli. Symptoms match
Ruffled feathers,depression, Less feed intake, coughing, and change of voice in lameness. Symptoms for 2 weeks. Vet did...
Hi all!
I’m back with another case of EYP/Salp.
1/4 of my Lav Orps has already passed from it. It’s heartbreaking. I’d rather they never lay another egg if it keeps them safe.
Anyway. Janice was dealing with this last fall. I was treating with Baytril and was saying my goodbyes. Her...
History
My two year old ISA Brown hen, Candy, has had persistent vent gleet for a few months. Other than a messy bum and slightly thin egg shells, she was acting normal. I added acidified copper sulfate to her water, bathed her, and gave probiotics last month, but the vent gleet continued...
Good morning everyone,
I bought two young bantam cochins at the Ohio National a few weeks ago. I brought them home, and put them in quarantine. After a day, both had a sneeze and very light gurgling when breathing. I immediately treated them with All-in-One powder, which treats multiple...
Currently treating my geese for a respiratory infection and purchased water soluble Tylosin. I’m wanting to give it in single dosages orally to make sure the medication is being taken adequately.
The package says add 5g per gallon of drinking water, but nothing about single dosages.
What...
I have a sick bird in need of Baytril (enrofloxacin), and I need help determining the correct measurements. I purchased "Enrofloxacin 10% Powder." The packaging includes instructions for administering the drug in drinking water, but because my chicken is not drinking much and the taste of...
I am using up the last of prescribed Baytril 10% oral on a 2.5 lb hen that is no longer laying and we won't be eating. I had someone give her tonight's dose as I wasn't able to do it and they gave her .5 ml instead of .05 ml. Has anyone ever had this happen? Will she be okay? I should have...
Hello, just a general question. Treating a (non-contagious) sinus infection in a turkey with both Excede and Baytril (did a culture, Excede covers 2 of the isolates while Baytril covers the 3rd. We had a vet tech use the dosage recommendation on poultry dvm to give us a number on the excede...
Hello!!! Our pigeons have a one week old baby and he had been doing great, but yesterday he seemed to be breathing kind of hard but we thought it might be because it was hot out…today, he’s breathing more heavily and it makes a clicking sound, so we were suspecting some sort of respiratory...
My chicken developed EYP, and I've been treating her with baytril 10 (oral). However, at the onset of EYP her crop swelled up and stopped emptying. It isn't sour crop (yet) as there's no smell, but she's drinking lots of water and it--along with the meds--seem to just be sitting in her crop...
I had two sick hens, Betsy and Coco, both 9-months old, both had diarrhea and purplish/light colored combs and wattles, although they were not acting any differently. Still eating, drinking, playing in the yard, taking dust baths, interacting well with me and each other, etc. First Betsy was...
The attached picture is the medicine I got my girls. So I’m trying to figure out how much to give them. The bottle says 10mgs/kg body weight so I figured that means 20mgs per hen.( cause each hen weights about 5lbs and that converted to mgs is 2kgs per hen. ) so I’m confused because the syringe...
I have heard many different opinions on whether to use or not use Baytril 2.5% or Baytril 10% to help cure a recurring and swollen bumblefoot.
Question 1: Is Baytril SAFE for hens and, after a 2 week egg dumping/withdrawal period, can I eat the eggs from my treated hens?
Question 2: If I...

Good morning everyone, I am at a loss right now as to what to do. I have some kind of upper respiratory in my flock. I have no idea where it came from. It starts out as a sneeze, then wheezing, then swollen sinuses and eyes with discharge, a coughing sound, clear-ish discharge from the mouth if...
Well, here I am not 24 hours from Prolapse Week...with my 6 yr old Mabel, a not-so-big Jersey Giant.
I noticed 2 days ago she was keeping to herself. Yesterday morning, I found 2 large pieces of very soft eggshell on the poop board.
Yesterday afternoon I happened to see her from a spot where...
Is the dose on the bottle correct orrrr ??? I don’t want to accidentally overdose my birds but don’t want to underdose either. I’ve seen varying things. Also if it is correct, it would be 0.3 on the syringe right? For 6-7 lb hen? Don’t worry, I will measure them to get an exact weight beforehand...
Vet told us to give 1 ml baytril injections in our rooster’s wing. How do you give wing injections? I read some awful things about baytril injections. Will he be ok if we give him the injections the vet gave us?
backstory: We took a 6 month old Australorp rooster in to the vet yesterday, and he...
