Henhathnofury Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Two of my girls are under the weather - one laying softies and both with raised temperatures. I really hate antibiotics, both the human and animal varieties - but it seemed the only option as they were not getting better naturally. Every day I have to give them a tablet twice a day, a pink one that is broken into four and hidden in food. I have tried bread, grapes, raisins and tomatoes. My Pepperpot scoffs anything but my Gingernut Ranger has learnt to prise out the pink bits and then flounce away after eating the rest, leaving the hated tablets in four untouched pieces on the floor. It is becoming a battle of wills and she is the stubbornest, craziest girl..... ....I love her to bits.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 How about crushing it ,mixing it with water & syringing it into her beak? I have done that in the past with various antibiotics & worm treatments,but I must say that the antibiotics I usually get from my vet is in liqued form anyhow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Sounds like my dog when we give him anti-car sickness tablets . Lovely bit of ham with a tablet wrapped up in it. Ham devoured, tablet spat out . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
