Holly is poorly

mumsy · « **on:** July 11, 2008, 22:27 »

I posted the other day about Holly having a cough for a couple of weeks, we thought it might have been dust orientated, but today her nose had bubbles..................I rushed to Babe's to get anti-biotics & tonight, much to her disgust have isolated her.........probably too late though...she has not laid for 3 days now & isn't eating very much...any other help would be appreciated I am soooo worried :cry: :cry: :cry:

Oh so sorry mumsy!
Sounds like an upper respiratory infection...Baytril or Tylan is usually recommended the sooner the better. You could try to syringe some fluids into her as well if shes not drinking. Fingers crossed for her!!!

sorry mumsy, hope she's gets well soon, fingers crossed.

If she's bubbling it could be mycoplasma. If it is then she needs to be on the antibiotics until you are CERTAIN she is well. It's something that's never completly cured so you always have to be on the look out for it in the future

Babe gave me Aureomycin soluble powder, will this be sufficient?

Yep, is a broad spectrum for most mycoplasma.
