Egg Bound Chicken - How Long to Recover?

[Wyorp Rock]

Thank you! I was looking up salpingitis yesterday and saw some folks mentioning Baytril as a way to help. I ordered some that will arrive next week. I do have amoxicillin on hand. Do you think I should continue with just the amoxicillin?

Have you started the Amoxicillin?

Baytril is often used off label, it's a strong antibiotic. Up to you if you want to wait and use it instead.

I started the amoxicillin last night & will continue for the next few days. Appreciate all your help!!

Any updates on your B.O. hen? Did the amoxicillin help?

The amoxicillin mixed with the calcium tablets did help her. She has not gone back to laying but seems to be doing normal chicken stuff!
