So I have been dealing with some of my girls having alllll of the symptoms. I have Amoxicillin which I purchased for my birds thinking they just had a reg upper respitory infection. I did 5 days of medicated water for my whole flock for the initial respiratory infection. Now 3 are showing full signs of Coryza. Can amoxicillin be used for treatment in coryza? I need some guidance on what to do here.
 
Do you have photos?

Do they have a bad odor? Infectious Coryza reported has a foul odor.

Infectious Coryza is contagious, and the birds will be carriers for life. They may become symptomatic over and over again too, just depends.

Are these birds new to you?

Amoxicillin is not a good choice to treat symptoms of Infectious Coryza. Sulfa drugs would be better. Here's some reading for you
