Help please. where can I go online to buy some baytril for my chickens infecsted foot? I found one site but mg was 135mg /tablet and I think that is way to much for a chicken.

Welcome to BYC!

This place sells the liquid:
https://allbirdproducts.com/products/baytril-10
The dose I would use is 0.045 ml per pound of body weight orally twice a day.

Please note that Baytril (enrofloxacin) and other drugs in this class (fluoroquinolones) are banned for use in poultry in most countries.

Can you post some pictures of your chicken's foot?

Is it banned in waterfowl too?

Yes, it's banned in all birds that people might eat. Even tough it's banned, there are many vets that still prescribe it.

I will add that my vet prescribed this for my quail who had bumblefoot.
