Antibiotics and eggs

linzechris · « **on:** January 16, 2009, 10:17 »

Hi,
My girls are on antibiotics at the moment as one was ill and I had to put it in the drinking water so they are all taking it.
Just wondered if it is safe to eat the eggs whilst they are taking it. :?

Advise 7 days withdrawal is you are eating them -and 3 weeks if selling.

is that 7 days after the course is finished? (I'm in the same boat and she's just finished a course of baytril)

That's right - while they are taking it which could be anything up to 2 weeks and another 7 days after finishing it.
