Mycoplasma question

[chicknmania]

Is Oxine cleared for food?! You read such a lot about stuff turning up in eggs or chicken meat which isn’t good for your health...

It's such a tiny amount in the water I think it's fine. I was given that advice by a poultry professional and have used it for years when needed.

I looked it up,the acting ingredient is tiamulin, which is a part synthetic antibiotic used for pigs, turkeys and chicken, to treat mycoplasma you have to give the chickens 25mg/kg on 3-5 consecutive days, it is made out of a certain kind of mushrooms.. please contact you vet for exact dosage!!! I am not a vet, I just read the package instructions, it has a waiting period of 28 days for pigs...

I just gave her the instructions given with the medication sold tome by someone licensed to sell it. The directions I gVe work. Agaim...for 16 years now we b e had chickens never had any die from Denagard

There is no withdrawal period for eggs or meat in chickens. Chickens are not pigs. I am not pulling this information out of the air somewhere, OK? We've had chickens as I said before, for going on 16 years. Denagard is safe to use, it can even be used for new chicks. Here's a link. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0032579119361838 and the dosage instructions I relayed above are appropriate.

Thanks this is kind of what I was thinking to do. But I didn't think I should give them anything to prevent it because then I wouldn't know for sure whether they all have it or not. I complete moved away my most special chickens that weren't very infected if at all and left my infected ones where they were and now I was just going to wait a month or so and if nothing showed up then I was going to go one about like normal if something showed up then I would just get rid of that chicken and probably start my quarantine over or maybe then give some antibiotics.

Does Denagard keep chickens from getting it or does it just keep them from showing symptoms. What does it do if they already have the disease.

Only you can figure out what's best for you. The information is there, take it for what it's worth, and maybe talk to your vet too if it's worrying you that much, but even poultry vets don't know everything, and again, I know this from experience. Only recently have poultry become a rage, to the point where people regularly seek veterinary assistance for their birds.

Yes. And it's only a tiny amount in the water, anyway.
