    Upping the tems and humidity will not "clean" it up per say. The only sure treatment for an RI is through the proper administration of antibiotics. Its better to be safe than sorry down the line. I would advice taking the entire flock down to a COMPETENT vet and have him or her check them out. :2cent:

    Baytril (brand/common name, not drug name) as shots perhaps tends to be the first choice. Doxyicillin(sp) was the next one I got when the Baytril didn't work.


    Good luck!

    My vet preferrs to use Fortaz as his first choice of antibiotic.. depends on the vet, but I've had great luck with Fortaz.
