is baytril dose the same for ducks

[Jenbirdee]

as it is for chickens?

Yes, it is the same. It is best to give it orally if possible, and not in the water since it tastes bad. 10 mg per kilogram orally twice a day for 5 days is the usually dosage. A kg equals 2.2 pounds. Have you weighed your duck?

the 10% liquid enrofloxacin
I used it once for a chicken
it doesnt expire until 2025
and I kept in the fridge
tried Oxine AH by nebulizer
tried Tylan 200 three times a day for 5 days
tried Valbazen using the gapeworm dosage
then did 5 days of probiotics
and the last 2 days nebulizer with colloidal silver
she still hoarse with squeaking and some
coughing
