Just to add more to the confusion. I went to a seminar last month and one of the topics was backyard chickens. The vet giving the lecture said Baytril was a NO NO. And no longer recommended.

This is true, it's banned for use in poultry, but it's such a good drug that many vets still prescribe it even though they aren't supposed to. Of course it's super easy to get without a prescription.

just google enroxil, enfloxil, "baytril for birds", or baytril for fish".

No I don't think she can. I remember posting pics in the other thread but since she wasn't able to see them she was getting confused. I just remembered this...after posting pics here.

Yes, I know it's easy to get. However, I always am cautious of drugs manufactured in another country. Vet and I discussed this and revealed many of these compounds have additional ingredients or lacking what the label describes. She was definitely cautious about using Baytril on chickens handled by young children or immune compromised folks.

Yeah, I'm a little paranoid about buying drugs from other countries but have been okay so far.

This chicken...the ops chicken has been through a lot. Another countries med isn't going to do much harm in this situation.
