Antibiotic For Possible Gravid ?

hmj75 May 30, 2009 06:30 PM

I have a het ghost female that has been locking up for a few months now and is very close to ovulation.Problem is she looks like she has a respiratory infection.What antibiotics can be given and would she end up losing the eggs?If anybody knows which one to use I would greatly appreciate it.She is about 1500 grams now.

I have a female that I had bred but didn't think she was going to go this year but then noticed an upper res so I pulled her and the male and started treating them with baytrill its been about a week I had not pulled her completely out of her tub since I set her up on paper towels (what I use for bedding for my uri balls). Her paper towell became soiled so I pulled her to change her bedding and check her weight but to my delight soon followed by my horror............ I noticed that I tottaly missed the fact that she was gravid...... so I hope some one replies with an answer, this pair was my only shot at a humble bee this year... spyder het hypo male x pastel het hypo female.

Are my little eggies going to be ok?? Is there any way to salvage the clutch with out hurting the female???
