I thought you had some enrofloxacin?

-Kathy

Yes, i just found it, but it's another brand not Baytril, how much i should give her? I already gave her 0.5 ml since i was too late and needed to leave for work.

Quote: If the stuff you have is 100mg/ml you can give 0.15 to 0.2 ml per kilo once a day or 0.1ml per kilo twice a day.

I think its 100mg, and she weights 2 kg i guess. Thanks again.

if it's 100mg/ml then 0.5 was a little too much, but she should be okay. IN 48 hours from now you should see some improvement.

I hope so, i will give her 0.35 next time.

Or 0.4, either will be fine.

She died today, its weird that she died at the same time which my peachick last year died if you remember it, with the same symptoms. Its also too 5 days until she died, i'm wondering why? Is it their feed so i could change it?! But i guess if it was the feed the others should get sick too.

Sorry you lost her... Were you able to tube feed her?

Following up to my happy note and requesting some advice.

As described in my happy report - I finished (11/10) dosing and maintenance (Emtryl and Corid) of my penned hens, 2 of 4 had been noticeably affected by an apparent combination of Blackhead followed by Coccidiosis.

After 2 weeks of mostly normal poos (a few loose), this morning I found the dreaded blood again and one hen with sickly posture - drooping wings and neck tucked in shoulders. Photos below... first is morning, second is probably from last night or evening.




I do NOT see sulfur color and the sickly hen was still pecking at food this morning so I am planning to start Corid treatment again - treatment dose followed by maintenance dose.
Is that the correct next step? Okay to treat the entire pen of 4 via water?

Should I do the Emtryl treatment again as well?

It has been 3 weeks since the initial and follow-up worming triggered by illness - should I worm the pen again?

I don't have a second pen to use for quarantine and the hen that is sick was not my patient zero although she was ill the longest in my initial bout with these problems. I am covering problem poos with a heavy dose of lime then straw and then forking out of pen.

Thoughts?

Yes, i was tubing her with Kaytee feed 3 times a day, and she started eating well after 2 days of getting sick, but she got worse again after that.
