In case of mixed infection (E. coli & mycoplasma) combination of Tylosin tartrate and Doxycycline is the best treatment or Colistin sulfate and Gentamycin sulfate can also be used in this purpose. Other supportive treatment like respiratory stimulants, acidifier can also be used with those antibiotic. For more specific treatment antibiotic sensitivity test should be done in the laboratory.

MG superinfection with E. coli is most common in broilers.

Send affected lungs and swabs from air sacs to laboratory for antibiotic sensitivty testing.

Anyhow MG causes chronic infection antibiotics eliminate C. signs but bird dont perform well, dont show good FCR.

So its better always perform pre purchase testing for all common vertically transmitted diseases whic are not eliminated in your country broiler breeders.

after purchasing you should perform PCR or ELISA or plate aglutination test for VTDs.

you can claim your purchase price at least.
