Quote: ahhhh interesting! you found someone that has a bator like that! cool!! and to be completely honest, I did the test once and cant remember so you will have to follow her instructions on that link. I tend to investigate on my own after most hatch is complete.

roasting. I love summer. Ice in all the waterers. Fans going in the coops.

I think I might have pushed my broody hen to her limit of accepting chicks from the incubator. I gave her two more this morning. She was on her way out with the two remaining chicks. She saw me and the chicks and went back in her nest and clucked to everyone to come. I sat with her a while until she let the newbies under her. After that I figured she would be fine. I love a good broody. I have 6 eggs left in the bator. 2 should hatch tonight or tomorrow. Guess I will have to set up a brooder.

LOL

So here is another tid bit.

I am very much learning as I go here. In human medicine, we treat surgical patients prophylactically with cephalosporin antibiotics. I was surprised and pleased to see them banned in the agricultural arena. We have to guard this class of drugs like gold.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a final rule on July 3, 2008 prohibiting the extra-label use of cephalosporins (including ceftiofur in swine) in food-producing animals. The agency is issuing this order based on evidence that extra-label use of these drugs in food-producing animals will likely cause an adverse event in humans and, as such, presents a risk to the public health. Public comment regarding the rule will be accepted until September 2, 2008 and the rule will go into effect on October 1, 2008.
This action would add cephalosporin antimicrobials to the list of drugs prohibited for extra-label use by the FDA. Given the recent approval of Baytril® for use in swine, it is important to remember that it too is among another class of drugs, fluoroquinolones, that are also prohibited for extra-label use in food animals.
Under the Animal Medicinal Drug Use Clarification Act (AMDUCA) drugs on this list may not be used under any circumstances in an extra-label manner even by a veterinarian.

what is that type typically used to treat?

In humans - trade names include Ancef, Keflex, Rocephin Cephtin

Used to treat pnumonia, blood infections UTI, gonorrhea and skin infections.

Cephalosporin compounds were first isolated from cultures of Cephalosporium acremonium from a sewer in Sardinia in 1948 by Italian scientist Giuseppe Brotzu. He noticed these cultures produced substances that were effective against Salmonella typhi, the cause of typhoid fever
