Chlortetracycline is one of the oral antibiotics that have been prescription only for over a year. Perhaps if you give some details on what you are treating with symptoms, we might be able to suggest an alternative medicine that is still available. Tylan 50 and 20 injectable are still available and can be used orally in chickens and turkeys for several types of infections.

I have one two year old hen that has a repository problem. Sneezing and water in the eyes. She has a gurgle when she breaths. Not eating or drinking very much. She is in a coop with two other hens and I was going to treat them all. I have ten twenty week old pullets and do not want to mix them together until she is well.
 
You can give Tylan 50 injectable, but give it orally only to the sick chicken, 1 ml for a 5 pound hen, 1.5 ml for 7 pounds, and give it 2 or 3 times daily for 5 days. Give it a drop at a time, letting her swallow. It does no good to treat the others if they have no symptoms.

Mix up a little bowl of chicken feed plus a lot of water to make it runny to get more fluids into her. Offer some chopped scrambled egg. You can mix in a couple of spoonfuls of plain yogurt daily into the wet feed to give them some probiotics to help prevent diarrhea while on antibiotics.

The sick hen may be a carrier after she recovers. Here is a good link to read that has info on respiratory diseases such as infectious bronchitis or mycoplasma (MG, CRD.)
