Shanijo Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Hi folks i'm pleased to say that after about 4 months of tlc Belle is fighting fit again and the vet has discharged her. He has been giving her Tiamutin. Now we've stopped the medication how long do we have to wait before we can eat the eggs again?

Luvachicken Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 I know this seems a bit of a daft question but why can't you eat the eggs once a hen has finished her medicine ? I know there will be traces of medicine in the egg but is it really as serious as it sounds ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Like you say it's not known how long it takes to excrete it from the body. My vet said after Baytril you should never eat the eggs (because it's unknown) but she says she eats them after 3 weeks. A freind has been told 6 weeks. I waited the 3 weeks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coco Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 My frizzle Fifi has just started a course of Baytril for an ear infection. I'll leave it three weeks till we eat her eggs again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
