    We have one bantam who's eye is watering and closed maybe from being peeked and a couple bantams that have runny noses. We were needing to know what antibiotic to get for them. Thanks

    Hi again, I am prowling BYC this AM..... OK, if they were my birdies and I have vague symptoms like this, I would be getting out the TYLAN50 [injectable stuff] and giving the 3 of them a course of 1/2cc once a day for 4 days IM. Have you ever given shots before?
