Thank you Wyorp Rock for your help! She passed the membrane yesterday and later I will post pics of her all around so you guys hopefully can help me more. She don't have any canker or mucous inside her beak. How can I tell if she is emptying overnight? So if I get it right, I need to keep flushing her eye, apply Terramycin, give her Tylan, give her the D3+Calcium and also Baicalin? Do I need to check her ears with a Q-Tip?Please post photos of her, her face/eye, her poop.
Thanks!
Did she expel the membrane or not?
You noticed blood on the vent - she's had a collapsed membrane and a difficult time expelling it from what I can understand. I would surmise that the blood is from the difficulties she's been having over the last day or so with the egg, not Coccidiosis.
Take time to read the article linked below, so you can safely give oral medications.
Tylan 50 dose is 0.25ml per pound of weight given orally 3 times a day for 5 days in a row. It's an excellent antibiotic used to treat bacterial and bacterial-like respiratory infections like Mycoplasma. If you have started treatment, then I'd finish the course.
You will still need to flush the eye and apply your ointment as suggested in your other thread.
Any lesions or canker or mucous inside the beak?
Check her for lice and mites while you are taking care of her to make sure they are not a problem.
If her crop is not emptying overnight, then let us know.
And yes, continue with the Calcium with D3 for 5 days.
