I can't believe I messed up like this. OMG.....

I really don't know of much you can do unless you have activated charcoal and know how to administer it. I'm not really sure that would be the answer either.
Right now, supportive care is what they need. Warmth, fairly dark, access to water and food and careful monitoring.
I sure hope they make it for you.
Don't beat yourself up, you were trying to help them.

I'm so sorry. I'm not sure there is anything you can do now except hope they make it, no counteracting agent you can give them.

I'm sorry.

Found this with just a quick glance. This is for Tylan powder. Still looking...

"What should I do if I know of or suspect there has been an overdose?
Toxicity is very rare. If you know or suspect your pet has had an overdose, contact your veterinarian immediately."

It's an injection and there's nothing you can do. The overdose may lead to kidney or liver failure.

found this. I realize chickens are not dogs, but thought it might help. Hang in there.

Tylosin (Tylan Rx) seems to be very safe in dogs. It causes problems in ruminants and horses sometimes, but that seems to be related to the fact that they are herbivores with a high dependence on bacterially aided digestion. Tylosin can interfere with lab testing for ALT and AST, so if there are elevations in liver enzymes after starting it there is a possibility it is a lab error produced by the antibiotic. I could not find any reports of toxicity with long term use and tylosin appears to be pretty safe even when overdosed (short term).
