He is breathing a bit rapidly, but that's OK-he's been doing that.
Can you lower the lights a bit so he can rest better? He needs to be very calm and he will be calmer if it's a bit darker.

Ok he drank a little more water, he is keeping his head up now, three hours ago he wouldn't lift it at all...

So this is more question than advice but it sounds like maybe its not the antibiotics that had them down but a really bad infection. So even considering the OD of antibiotics is it safe to stop giving them or will they decline due to no more treatment? I am just curious myself.

Just as a side note I give mine some of the same homeopathic stuff i give the kids. So its not unknown here to give the chickies elderberry syrup or probiotics. I have even been known to give them the hylands cold tabs in their water. Usually this is done as a preventative. Like if they get soaking wet and got locked out of the coop and were found freezing cold and wet, they get all this and more to prevent any complications since most of these are just immune system boosters.

Peter doesn't answer my calls, I called him 4 times to ask him what to do with my chickens in the first place never got a call back. If he wanted me to pay I would have because I have 4 chickens showing signs of illness and was really desparete to find out what to do or to give them. I finally asked CJ, why CJ she is where I got eggs from, in fact the silkie that is in the worst shape is one of her eggs. She is a byc member and she suggested to give them the tylan, she told me how much I just got stupid and gave the wrong amount..

He may be having some health issues he didn't answer my last call either. Try to email him and flag it urgent!!!!!!! Emergency!!!!

I have over 60 chickens and there's only these 4 that are having issues right now, everyone else seems to be doing great..

Do you have a red light bulb? That would allow you to see him and it would allow him to rest better. Glad to hear he's doing better especially that he is drinking water again.
