Possible respiratory infection, peafowl?

The 5% can be given orally, IM, or under the skin. Can the pharmacist get you amikacin?

Isn’t enrofloxacin similar to Cipro? Does it treat psuedomonas or E.coli? Maybe there is some air saculitis going on. But I know zero about peafowl. It looks like Cipro does treat pseudomonas here.

Maybe need to treat with some probiotics, and nutrition support.

For the Amikacin just read between 10-20mg/kg so for example 3kg peafowl I could give 0.1ml-0.2ml intramuscular?

I haven't looked up. The dose yet, but if it's 250 mg/ml, then it's:
3 x 10 or 20 / 250

Has he lost weight? I thought that at the start of this he was 4 kg.
