How long do i throw away eggs when i'm medicating with tylan 50?

[mariaschickens]

I have a flock of 23, and most of them are my good laying hens. I've noticed that a few of my chicks are sneezing and coughing, so i'm medicating the whole flock with Tylan 50. But, how long do i have to throw away the eggs? Just while they are actively taking the medication? Or, i've heard that a month is needed after the meds are complete. I enjoy eating my eggs and i wouldn't want to poison myself, lol.

If you treat them with an antibiotic you will need to wait at least 10 - 14 days after treatment has ended.... there may be variations in responses BUT do not eat any eggs before the above waiting period.

Why does it say not to use in laying hens?

Maybe that's because it's a tetracycline?
