[junedaly]

Hi all, got some baytril from the vet and administered the first dose yesterday. There's a noticeable improvement today,she's eating and her eyes are open with swelling gone down. I'm treatig the whole flock forca week as one other was showing symptoms.
So relieved

Baytril is an amazing drug, isn't it. Is definitely near the top of my "Top Ten Items to Have in Your Poultry First Aid Kit". Glad you were able to see a vet and that your hen is getting better.
