Tetra _______ ?

[lyric]

Hello,



We puchased some stock from a guy who suggested we use "tetra" SOMETHING in our chicken's water. I can't for the life of me remember if he said, "tetramycin" or tetracycline" or some other tetra. He said we could get it from the feed store.



Does this ring a bell for anyone? Which "tetra" should we be purchasing?



Thanks.

Tetracycline is actually Duramycin. Here's a link to Durvet with dosages for chickens:

Edited to add: Administer 7-14 days, make a fresh solution daily. There's a 21 day withdrawal after last use.
