No hydrocortisone cream?

No. But I realized I have antibiotics pils on hand. Would you happen to know the dose for a silkie??

I don't know dosing of antibiotics. I would help if I knew.

Hydrocortisone and benadryl tonight. I'll update tomorrow.
I realized I have some antibiotic pills on hand. Does anyone know the dosage?

Thank you all for your help this far!!!

Different antibiotics probably require different dosages, so it would help if you can tell the name of the antibiotic, and how much is in each pill.

(I don't personally know the dose for any antibiotic, but I've read enough labels to know how much variation there can be from one to another.)

Amoxicillin. I'm reading 125mg/kg. So I'm planning 250mg twice a day. Assuming she weighs 4 lbs.

What about drawing salve? If it is a bite maybe it could draw out some toxins? Maybe?? Sorry I am a new chicken mom so just trying to come up with something that may help until you get meds.

I tried hydrocortisone and benadryl. No changes.
I started her on antibiotics today
She's only 2lbs 6oz. So the goal dose is 135mg every 12hrs for 9 doses.
