Anyone use this? Opinions

This one would be a little better for treating MG in chickens:

Dosgage for chickens is 1 tsp per gallon of water for 3-5 days.

@Eggcessive But this is for chicks for the first 7 days. I don't understand the need for that.

LS50 or SpecLinx is used for treating MG and CRD. What is it that you are treating? What are symptoms? Age?

@Eggcessive My daughter is a vet. She slept through her only chicken class however she has become my drug dealer.

She found this in her catalog and forwarded it to me. Label says for the first 5-7 days after hatching. Just trying to decide if i should put this in the chicken medicine cabinet.

Well, personally, I would get tylan (tylosin,) doxycycline, or oxyteracycline, since those can be used for the same diseases, at any age. Spectinomycin and lincomycin are just some other antibiotics that treat the same diseases, and may not be as effective. You can presently buy either of those here:
