Thick Yellow Poop

The problem is getting the Baytril. This is a holiday weekend so anything ordered today isn't going to arrive until next week.

Oh no

That is why I suggested a vet. Sadly, many strains of E. coli are resistant to amoxicillin, so something like Baytril would be better.

Probably wont get baytril til next week. Ugh. Unless someone local has it. Idk. I'm so lost.

All I have is tylan 50 and my leftover amoxicillin. Why does this happen on a holiday ugh

I think if you don't have anything except tylan I will go with tylan till u can have baytril

Can't you get medicine from a store near u like I got here ?
Do u need prescription?

I usually have a stock always in my home as here in India it's very easy to buy

Its illegal here to give chickens antibiotics. I found a bottle of tylan online for $70 and thats what I have. It expired in February. I'm getting conflicting advice whether to amox or to tylan. I put a post on facebook asking around for Baytril

I've only ever seen one place that sold it, but they stopped doing it because it's illegal.

Over here too. Not sure if vet could prescribe.

Tylan will not treat E. coli or pseudomonas. Tylan is for treating gram positive bacteria and if she has an infection, it is almost certainly a gram negative infection, for which something like Baytril is used.

1 week to arrive. Waiting on a response on Facebook.

Some vets will, some won't.

It's tricky... Baytril is actually banned for use in poultry, but some vets still prescribe it. If you find a vet that won't prescribe it there are other drugs that might work as well. Such drugs might be Amikacin or SMZ/TMP, or a combination of drugs.
