What I have heard is you wait a number of days after they stop the Baytril and it has cleared her system.

@casportpony ?

Baytril is an amazing drug. The official withdrawal time in cattle is 28 days, so that's probably what I would do.

If I read this study correctly, egg withdrawal is 5 days after last dose, but I would probably wait at least a few more days.

I just glanced at it, so maybe I didn't read it correctly.
