    Do each of them fight different strains of infection?

    Which one would that be?

    have to try treatment with one and see. If it dont clear up in a week then switch.

    Given is proper dosages they wont harm the animal one bit. But Baytril and Tylan seems to work the best for Myco and RIs in rats.

    Hmm Alright. ive got one 1.2 im treating with Doxy just to see what happens. If a week goes by and they havent stopped sneezing I'll switch to Tylan again. This is a fun experiment though!

    While treating, be sure each cleaning day, the tubs/cage sides are cleaned with disinfectant to get the germs off.

    I wouldnt use bleach as its a strong cleaner. And rats have great noses, that im sure Bleach even diluted will irritate em.

    I clean my rodents every 3 days casue i have a lot of em. And i spray the tubs with Cholorohexidine.
