Sorry, I'm just really worried about her. It's for respiratory problems, we're giving her 0.5ml daily into her beak with a syringe. We started her on it last Friday.

I'm no expert but I would think you should be seeing a difference by now.

I agree, if baytril is going to help, you should be seeing some signs of improvement by now, I would have thought. Was the vet an avian vet? Unfortunately general vets tend to prescribe baytril for all/any bird problems, mostly because they don't have much of a clue about birds. It is a broad-spectrum antibiotic and thus gets rather over-used.  |
