My Montana has been in the chicken ER for the past 3 weeks. Her legs were injured somehow overnight in the coop. So far her left leg has made an almost complete recovery whereas her right leg is much worse. She will barely put weight on it and there is a sore on the top of the leg, it is not open but is not getting better. I was putting Blue-Kote on it but I think it is getting worse. Her entire leg is very hot to the touch so I think internal meds are necessary.
So....the question is....which antibiotic do I use? I see many places to use tetracycline hydrochloride and I also see to use Baytril.
Also, do I give her warm or cool bath soaks?
Any advice is appreciated!
