It's lame and doesn't like to walk, it shakes it foot sometimes and seems to have a fever, I think it could possibly staphylococcus, but i'm not sure, so Is there any way to treat keets for it?

I wish I could help, but I think we need a lot more information. Why do you think it's Staph? There's a sticky at the top of this forum with questions you need to answer so we can give you a relevant answer.
 
I found a treatment for it, i thought it was staph because it was showing all the symptoms. It's an im injection, and my mom is a nurse so she can give an injection, but we don't know where to put it. The keet is about a week and a half old. Does anyone know where to inject the antibiotic? (penicilin)
 
It's a french guinea, 1 and 1/2 weeks old, don't know the weight
behavior described above
it;s been acting like this for 2 days
no sign of trauma or blood
we gave it some electrolytes, and its been pecking weakly a bit
We're using pine chips
 
i inject the pennecillian under the wings by pulling the loose skin up and injecting between the skin and tissue. pennecillian must be shaken very good and kept cold
