Buying Baytril - Buyer Beware

[Garden Peas]

Dang what kind of vet is this , checking for worms should have been the first thing they did, worms can cause all kinds of problems and cause secondary infections, keeping birds on a regularly worming schedule with the proper wormer can at least help eliminate those kind of problems and keeping up with it can help eliminate guess work when they get sick, they been wormed properly so look for something else that may cause the problems they are having.

I feel really bad for you and your flock, i have now read several different folks dealing with a high priced vet and their care they weren't proving absolutely uncalled for IMO

Yeah, what Zaz said.

The last bottle of Baytril I bought shipped from Oakland CA and was here in one day... No reason it should take more than a few days to arrive if you buy from a place with shipping options.

The 'no prescription' stuff on Ebay that I eluded to is coming from Turkey, it will generally take about 2 weeks to arrive, unless they offer some stupid expensive 2 day International shipping service...

Nope, I just pointed it out as a 'no prescription needed' simple and easy purchase...

We used to buy from a place overseas, but the FDA found a way to shut them down, so now we buy from a different source. It's generic, you *don't* need a prescription, and it ships from Oakland, CA. Cost is $39 for 100ml - exact same thing as Baytril 100, but for much less and it won't take too long to ship. Date code on my last bottle is 5-2015.

Not saying that one shouldn't buy from ebay, just that they don't need to.

There have been a few times that we have purchased meds from ebay, but never if we need them quickly.

I totally understand, and yes if there is a US seller skirting the FDA and you can get it faster I would certainly do that.... Overseas pharmacies are sure hit and miss, the FDA (and Customs) can be relentless at pressuring other countries to shut them down, even if what they are doing is legal there...

A lot of times you can get these types of meds at the local livestock shows (usually the small town ones, not the larger shows) with no script seems like there is always someone in the small towns hooking up the local farmers...
