Hi All, I've got a sick chicken that I've got an anti-biotic regimen and I'd like to get some "good bacteria" into her gut. I know a lot of folks recommend yogurt for this, but yogurt can reduce the efficiency of tetracycline. I've seen mention that young chicks get good bacteria from their mother's droppings - so it's got me thinking about using her healthy sister's poo as a source of probiotics. Anybody "jump started" their chickens this way? Does it do any good to even attempt this until the anti-biotic course is completed?
Thanks for your input.
