If my baby chicks ever get sick, what medicine would be best for them so save myself some money from a expense vet visit?

I would like to be prepared for whenever my baby brooder chicks ever get sick, I have heard "Clavamox" could be a good antibiotic for sick and weakened baby chicks. What would you guys recommend if your chicks got sick?

There is not a single medicine to recommend without knowing what you are hoping to prevent. A healthy bird is not likely to get sick to the point of needing antibiotics.

Are your brooder chicks sick now?

I see you asking a several different questions on a few threads, can you get to the root of your worry?

Do you have sick birds now or are you just worrying about potential problems in the future.

I would be hesitant to administer any antibiotic to baby chicks unless I was very certain about what illness they may have.
