I am glad you were able to get them in to see the vet!

Glad you were able to see the vet and get some different medication. I hope he gets better soon.

He's been off feed today but he ate some ice cream and pasta so that's something, he's barely nibbling his chicken food. And he's drinking water. He's walked around. Overall I think his outlook is OK, as long as he doesn't worsen overnight and he holds on for the meds to work.

Have you tried some scrambled or hard boiled egg to entice him to eat? Mine really like that. You could also give him about 1tsp of yogurt stirred into his feed with a little water to make a wet mash.

Being on Baytril he should not have any dairy products because Baytril can bind with calcium which can make it less effective.

Dang I knew that about doxy but not baytril. I'll keep him away from it.

He's crowing again today and his face is no longer swollen up.

Crowing? That's great news!

So happy for you both! You wanna see some time-lapse pictures of one I treated with Baytril?
