Hen Cannot Walk or Stand

[Razzlefrazzle]

Does anyone know the withdrawal period for some of the veterinarian prescribed medications? We're 3 weeks out, my daughter saw her in the nest box yesterday but I have no idea what her eggs look like I could've sworn the vet said 2 months (could've been eggs, could've been meat consumption?) but everything I'm reading online says 2 weeks (3 weeks to be safe) for eggs

Two months?! Never heard of egg withdrawal for that long... Maybe the vet misspoke and meant to say two weeks? I've given all sorts of antibiotics and do an egg withdrawal period of two weeks; three if I'm feeling finicky

Ok, that's helpful, thank you! I could be remembering it wrong too

What are the medications?

I wish I had asked when I called. My husband was chowing down on eggs yesterday so I called them because I was nervous and they did confirm it is a 60 day egg withdrawal. Now I'm staking out the nest box trying to see if she lays an egg because I have no idea which is hers.

All I know is one was tiny and the other was fairly large and had to be cut in half to give her.. and I got really good at giving chickens pills a skill I never thought I'd need hahaha

What medicine needs that long of a withdrawal? Can you call them and spask them to look it up?

Finally heard back.

Amoxi-Clav (clavamox) 250mg.
Sulfamethoxazole and Trimethoprim - 480mg.
Meloxicam 7.5mg

The last two medications listed are the only ones with the 60 day egg consumption warning.
