Snotty Sounding Roosters

I know this is for a rooster, but can you use Tylosin for egg producers? I have a sick flock and am trying hollistic stuff but if that doesn't work I'll need antibiotics. Just making sure if we have to go this route that we will eventually be able to eat their eggs again.

Yes, Tylosin is approved for chickens and has no egg withdrawal time. It can help treat symptoms of mycoplasma and some intestinal infections. You can start a new thread of your own where we might be able to help you.
 
How did you end up treating him?

I don't know if he'll be ok back with the other chickens - it's up to you to determine if he's healthy enough to be with them.
I can't remember stuff to save my life. Sorry this took so long.

We gave him the tylosin for a week. Then gave him the probiotics.

I put him back in with the others and there was no fuss. He just gave the other rooster a stern look and he backed off. He's been happily leading the ladies around with the other boy.

Sounds like he's doing good!
Thank you for the update.
