Hi everyone, I hope you can help me. I already lost 2 of my Orphingtons 😭
I can't find tetracycline for them and the lady at the Farm Store said to use Amoxicillin for fish because that is what everyone uses. 1 pill is 500mg. I have 7 chickens and was wondering how much pills I have to put into 1 gallon of water. If you guys could, would you please tell me so I can save my babys. Please😔

Can you list their exact symptoms?

How old are they?

What is their poop like?

Their symptoms are: blue spots on their comb and waddle , they become crusty and turn like a bluish/black. They have swelling in their face. My chickens are 7 almost 8yrs. Old. Their poop is sometimes green/brown but sometimes it has a white cap on it. Hope you know what I mean.
