My 3-year-old Brahma hen, Seana, has been having some reproductive tract issues (funky weak-shelled eggs) for over a year now. Just last week I found her standing in the corner of the coop facing the wall, looking droopy and pale, and having yellow-tinged poops. I brought her into the hospital crate for treatment and observation and gave her daily calcium+D3 tablets for a week or so and a round of the antibiotics I had on hand which was LA-200. Overnight she expelled more of what I am assuming was egg yolk and her mood improved significantly. Today she is acting like a normal chicken, but I found what appeared to be lash material in the hospital crate.

So...should I start her on Baytril or does LA-200 usually work for salpingitis?

How recently did you give her the LA200?

Tetracyclines can be given to treat Salpingitis. If she responds well with that, I'd try it again.
