I just hatched one Benny its HUGE and all black, So the huge BCM roo I have over the huge BR hen that lays godzilla eggs makes a black Sexlink chick. I will have to take images so you can tell me what it is, male or female. what color will a hens eggs be from this mating?

Hey all! Progress pics!! They're just on 2 weeks or so now give or take a day or so for the later hatched ones.

I'm going to guess that if they're the type to tell by feather mutations that I either have 1 cockerel and 4 pullets, or 1 pullet and 4 cockerels. Hoping for the prior!

BAYTRIL info generic
Baytril = Enrofloxacin, and it's dead easy to get without a prescription, though many people don't want you to know that.

Regarding Baytril... It is banned for use in poultry, but for those of you that don't care about that sort of thing you might want to think about getting a bottle of it.

Here are some pictures of my first ever sinus infection. Chick weight - 800 grams. Gave 0.16ml of 10% Baytril IM.

Here it is at 9 am:


Four hours later:




Here he is 8 hours later. Note that I have not wiped his face.







28 hours later - still some swelling that is hard to see in pictures and some clear drainage from nostril. Up five grams, which is not enough, but it's better than a loss.




Chick was 100% after just two shots, but gave two more per the recommendation of a vet.

Quote: Slowly catching up... Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

Had several different vets prescribe it for my young birds, and many people on BYC have had it prescribed for their young ones. This is something I found in Clinical Avian Medicine:


And this is from a veterinary drug handbook of mine:

For those that have ever had a respiratory infection in their flock, take a look at this:





@Fire Ant Farm or anyone else, can you explain what all this means? I see that sulfadimethoxine has a susceptible next to it, does that mean that I could have been used? Just curious... Anyway, the peafowl this was for was not mine and the owner's vet ended up prescribing gamithromycin, which is a cattle drug that is given by injection once every 7 days. I think.

This is the same bird, but different drugs tested:

Quote: I've been pretty lucky and haven't had to treat more than a few, but if I had something go through my flock and clear up on it's own I wouldn't do anything except maybe have an antibiotic or two on hand in case I had another like the peachick I posted about. My friend was not as lucky... He tried Tylan (tylosin), then Baytril (enrofloxacin) and maybe another one or two. This pseudomonas spread very quickly and he lost 10% of his youngstock before his report came back and they switched to gamithromycin.

I don't believe that the bottles above have any manufacturing info on them and they certainly are not meant to be used for injections. IMNSHO, injectable anything should come from a sterile, sealed, container.

Oral Baytril 10% (100mg/ml) - $25.49

Generic 10% injectable (100mg/ml) - Prices usually start at around $20

Howdy Jack...

I usually get Baytril from my vet, but I just found this... http://www.ebay.com/itm/281876535714?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

And injectable ivermectin which I use for almost all species from bats to birds to livestock, I get from Jeffers.

Goodnight all!

Here are all the oxytetracycline and tetracyline powders I could find.

​

Oxytetracyline and Tetracycline Powder Doses​

Oxytetracyline




Package weighs 181.5 grams and has 10 grams oxytetracycline.
10 ÷ 181.5 = 0.055, which means it's 5.5% oxytetracycline, 94.5% filler
One gram = 55mg
One teaspoon weighs about 3 grams which = 165mg x 5 teaspoons = 825 mg
The 800 mg dose for one gallon = 5 teaspoons (825mg is close enough)


Oxytetracycline






This package weighs 280 grams
Package contains 102.4 grams oxytetracycline

102.4 / 280 = 0.37 , which means that it's 37% oxytetracycline and 63% filler
370 mg per gram
One teaspoon probably weighs 3 grams, so it's 3 x 370mg = 1110 mg per teaspoon
The 800 mg dose for one gallon = ~3/4 teaspoons




Tetracycline Powder 5.5% (55mg per gram)




Package weighs 181 grams and has 10 grams tetracycline.
10 ÷ 181 = 0.055, which means it's 5.5% tetracycline, 94.5% filler
One gram = 55mg
One tablespoon weighs about 10 grams which = 550 mg
800 ÷ 550 = 1.45 tablespoons
The 800 mg dose for one gallon = 1.5 tablespoons (825mg is close enough)


Oxytetracycline - 343







102.4 / 135.5 = 0.76 , which means that it's 76% oxytetracycline and 24% filler
760 mg per gram
One teaspoon probably weighs 3 grams, so it's 3 x 760mg = 2280 mg per teaspoon
The 800 mg dose for one gallon = ~1/3 slightly rounded teaspoon
