I did 5 days of enrofloxacin. Finished 4 days ago.
Now this watery green poop. (See pic). 3 days ago she looked a bit off, but last 2 days she's been acting ok. Still eating/drinking.
Should I do another round of antibiotics?
I have a little mg scale from Temu. And gelcaps Amazon. I get the ones that hold essential oil and it's what I use for meds...like wormer or whatever is best to direct dose. Plus the tiny syringes.
But yes the math, forever my weakness. I always second guess lol. I did college algebra and...
I had to do some digging bc i needed this too. This is an answer I got from my FB chicken group friend.
**Dosage is 10mg per kg. The label says it's 10mg per 100mg of powder.
So 100mg of that powder per kg of bird.**
For a 4lb chicken looks like 181 mg twice a day. Check my math on above. My...
Do you have any recommendations?
I've been doing Amoxicillin and Albon since Saturday.
She's tail up, scratching around, and eating like a normal chicken today. I'm going to check her crop tonight to see how she did.
It's also small compared to googled lash eggs. Maybe 1/4-1/2 inch thick x 1 inch long.
It's inside a clear baggie in this pic lol, not touching it....🤮
She had other droppings after this that had bulk, almost normal, but brownish green. Prob what a fed her by hand last night. As green indicates bile, not eating.
Bingo pooped this under the roost bars last night. I poked it with a disposable knife, it's firm.
Source of infection or intestinal tissue? God forbid, lash egg
I didn't think of it that way. I wanted to treat the flagellates, which we think may be blackhead based on Bingos symptoms. I believe to truthfully know is a necrospy? So whatever is recommended for blackhead, I should dose that.
Long story. Vet approach was corid. I went ahead and did...
She is eating today, prob not as much but better than yesterday. I can torpedo feed her if need be. Im going to check her crop later and will fill her up if she needs it
I forgot to ask, would the medicine be harmful as a powder in the crop?
She didn't want to eat/drink much today. I'm going to try and entice her with other things tomorrow. I tried tuna, eggs, and grapes today. She only nibbled the grapes. Read that albon can reduce appetite 🥺
I believe a heaping tsp would be 5 grams. My tsp was level at the rim. I set up my scale to zero out that paper, so it's a true weight. Level tsp 4.28 grams.
I was gonna weigh it and stick it into a gelcap and give by mouth.
I plan to weigh it and stick it into a empty gel cap and dose by beak.
We have blackhead, flagellates found by vet. We were trying to just treat the severe coccidia, and I'm thinking we may have ventured into necrotic...
I was wondering if anyone knows individual dosing for this metronidazole? I have 20% so this is throwing me off. I need to dose one of my girls individually that's not drinking a lot.
1tsp equals a gram...I feel like I'm close to figuring it out but my brain isn't mathing tonight. I have a...
