Does ANYONE know where I can immediately purchase any of the "tablet form" smz-tmp, and the other two antibiotics (go figure, I can't recall the names this very second), as I'm trying to hurry and finalized my emergency kit before I no longer am able!) I can not locate them anywhere!
 
Antibiotics have a shelf life on them, plus, not really used too often unless a serious injury or advanced respiratory infections, and a few other isolated things.

For a bad respiratory infection, I ordered Fishmox on Chewy over a year ago. They don't sell it anymore but some places do, like this one for Tylosen https://jedds.com/products/tylosin-powder Search them for other ones.

I still would just purchase antibiotics when the need arises, though, as that Fishmox we bought over a year ago is expired now, and I'd have to buy something else if we need it again.

I was talking about my emergency kit (like we have for ourselves in the event of a major event... Food, water, meds, survival prep, ECT). I am currently dealing with a hen that has flystrike and when I went to my chicken er kit, I realized just how much needed to be reinventoried as we used it and didn't replace.

We don't have antibiotics in our First Aid Kits though.

For fly strike, they need a lot of Epsom salt soaks and you need a tweezers. Do you need help with that as there are several articles about how to treat it and I could find them if you can't.

I posted a different thread regarding that issue as I didn't want to cause confusion. I've read the many many sources on here. And so far it's been working.
Although most are saying soapy water, your saying Epsom salt? That's one thing I've found is I read read read and find myself more confused on best way to handle situations.
There was one lady's post that had an sunset off her journey and I reached out to request the link to her detailed day to day link. Thank you for your reach out and concern and desire to help.

Google smz-tmp for fish and you should find some.

Soap works too. Epsom salt water is calming like it is for us, and can help draw out infection.

Other products work as well. This is a reply by one of our educators: https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/fly-strike-help-me.1625573/post-27766574
