I have 4 rats. The oldest is very sick with a myco flareup. The three young rats all seem fine at this time.
I asked the vet about giving them Baytril and she said to NOT unless and until they show signs of the illiness. I assume this is to prevent them from building up an immunity from Baytrill (antibiotic).
However, knowing this group and the experience here.. I wonder if there is a dose that maybe I shoudl mix in their water to allow them to get a little Baytrill at least for the next 10 to 14 days?
Ideas? Good bad? If good what dose intot he water? I know it supposes to taste bad but figured I could mix a little syrup or sugar to mask the baytrill in the water.
thanks for reading and any comments
