Tylan 50 Injectables question

[tmasker]

What do they have? No one seems to be able to answer my question. How do I cull them? They are so cute and small!!! Vets in my area want $55.50 to see them or put them down. Any help would be appreciated!

They could possibly have coryza or mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG.) Here's a link, scroll down to both and read up on them if you wish. To be 100% sure though will require blood samples drawn and sent for analysis, your vet might be able to do that. $55.50 is cheap, here it costs $90+ just to walk in the door and goes up from there, no matter what type of animal you bring in.

Where do you inject the ducks? Would the Tylan 50 work for a bad leg problem that is swelled and hot?

this might seem like a dumb question, but could i reuse my needles after injecting one bird? could i use the same needle on another bird right away? or new needle?

any help will be MUCH APPRECIATED!!!!

You could reuse your needles no more than about 2 or 3 times. My experience is that they dull and can cause unecessary pain when injecting.

Just purchased Tylan 50 at Tractor Supply. Purchased 5 new girls and they all have respirator issues (runny nose, shaking head etc. Our Silkies eye closed from this sinus issue. Took to Vet thinking her eye was injured and in fact it's a respiratory infection. Being a novice I didn't even recognize. This forum has been very helpful. Joined to tell you all how much I appreciate your experience and dedication to our little pets. I use the site for all aspects of chicken care and this has by far been the most needed.

How long should we give full grown barred rocks tylan?

Tylan injectable is given for 3 days, not any longer than 5, and oral Tylan is given 3-5 days (I would do 5 for oral.)

Ok thank you. When can you allow them back into the flock
