I was asking if you had heard that the medicine could go through the semen of a rooster to the eggs? It's just something I had never heard of.

@Fancychooklady . The stuff I'm using is called Oxymav.

I can't find it anywhere on that medicine chart, but I suppose the closest thing to it might be: Also the stuff I put in blue.
It is a powder. I mix one table spoon to 400mls of water each day for 5 days.
Oxytetracycline Injectible, soluble powder Bio-Mycin 200 injectible (*much less painful than other injectibles), Terramycin powder; Liquamycin LA-200 injectible (Can also be given orally); Oxytet; Tetroxy HCA-280 powder; Pennox powder; Oxymycin 100 or 200 injectible; Oxymycin 10 or 343 powder; Agrimycin, Tetroxy HCA powder; Oxytetracycline Hydrochloride; Duramycin 72-200 or Duramycin 100 injectible Feed stores $7-18 Tetracyclines Chickens:
--Infectious Coryza in certain chickens
--Mycoplasma Gallisepticum** causing Chronic Respiratory Disease (CRD) or Air Sac Disease
--Fowl Cholera
--Necrotic Enteritis
--Coccidiosis

Turkeys: Hexamitiasis, Infectious Synovitis

Young turkeys: Bacteria complicating Bluecomb Soluble is poorly absorbed, but Injectible is better absorbed & longer lasting in bodies of birds than other Tetracyclines (except Doxycycline). **This seems one of the better Tetracycline meds for MG.
*For serious cases, can be helpful to use both injectible & oral Tetracyclines. You may be able to combine different Tetracyclines--Research to confirm.
Terramycin soluble: 1/8 tsp per cup water. Mix fresh daily for 7-14 days minimum. Tastes somewhat bitter.
CAUTION: Injectible may cause minor permanent muscle damage & temporary swollen knot at injection sites. Very painful when injected, except Bio-Mycin brand which has no-sting additive. Ways to help minimize problems: Spread out dose by injecting some under skin & some in muscle or just using 2 different injection spots each time, &/or give some of dose orally instead. (For oral dose, increase amount & frequency.)
LA-200: 1/4 to 3/4 cc. Can repeat once 2-4 days later. For chronic cases, repeat up to 2 weeks.
*Minerals & dairy products reduce med absorption--
allow 2+ hrs before/after give med if possible. Citric or other organic acids may help increase absorption.
*Conflicts with Penicillin.
--Don't eat eggs during treatment & for up to 10 days after.
*Rare risk possible if combined with Vitamin A or fish oil.

Those are some wonderful colours. Well done Chook and your pullets.
How are those Langshans going?

Thanks guys, there are quite a few amazing colours coming from them. The croads are going good. The young cockerel is coming along OK and I have Opal (my blue) entered into the royal Melbourne Show. I've put a few eggs and Marans in too and I'm a wee bit nervous now
