Enrofloxacin 10% (Baytril) is also used to treat reproductive disorders and other infections. Sometimes you can get the kind for pigeons, fish, or dogs and cats without prescription, and use it. Human and animal antibiotics are the same ones that can be used on chickens, as long as you don’t eat their eggs for several weeks. Veterinarians even in the US, normally need to see a chicken in order to prescribe medicines. It is against the law, and they can lose their licenses.

Im located in Denmark, there aren’t many vets for hens and the closest one that the other bird vet said would take me in is about 4 hours away and closed until Monday. I did get the encianta and will give that to her tomorrow

She haven’t eaten any solid food for 2 days so tomorrow I might try and force feed her if that is not to cruel, please say if you think it’s a bad idea, bc I’m not too sure about it

Brew the echinacea overnight, I do that for a really strong brew. I do the same with oregano. Actually, if you want a caffeine free energy boost, you can drink oregano tincture as well

A LITTLE BUT HUGE UPDATE: I vent to feed her the calsium pill and she freaking nibbled on a piece of cucumber, and even tried to eat some tuna and some of her pill on her own yay. How it looks now I’m very hopeful that she will get through the night

Does Denmark have naturopath or homeopathic stores? Perhaps you could go to one and see if they have natural antibiotic? We could review the ingredients together to see what kind of dosage. Just a thought.
