Antibiotics

[Aunt Angus]

The big reason why people do not want your eggs to come from chickens which have been given an antibiotic, is resistance, as has been mentioned. Resistance does take some time to develop. The "Organic" radical customers, would not want those eggs. I, however, would eat them no problem. I would feed them to my family without a qualm.

I would not eat them nor give them to my family them as my son is allergic to almost all antibiotics. There are only 3 available that he's been approved to take. I don't mess around with resistance. I wouldn't give them to my chickens, either, because of resistance.

That said, it's fine for most people! If you don't have any qualms about resistancetk that particular antibiotic family, you should be fine!

You should probably wait at least two weeks. Does the package have active ingredients listed?

Just read on the packaging that the withdrawal period is seven days

Yes that is what I fear. I’ve never heard anyone in my family say or talk about any type of allergic reaction to any antibiotics. As mentioned, I personally don’t mind it. I had 4 morning two of those were double yoked. I’ve asked several people and several members of my family None of which think it’s a big deal to give them out. I will be waiting a few more days before I give any out I have 5 1/2 dozen‘s in my Fridge. Now, I recently just found that the packaging of the antibiotic given says that the withdrawal period Is seven days

So your question is answered by the packaging. And many of us still wonder what you were using, and what the story is here in the USA, if that's where you are.

I do not give my hens any antibiotics. But, I know that the commercial chicken has it. I know that I and my immediate family are not allergic.
