My little pig got loose poo from Baytril. The Vet said sometimes antibotics cause that and to stop giving it to her. I read on Guinea lynx you can give your pig Acidophilus to balance the flora in their digestive tract that the antibiotic killed off. I have some of the kind that is recommended. I am not sure how much to give. I just gave her a little crumb. Wow did she like it!
Any advice on how much? (shes 1lb 10oz)
 
There's no set amount. I'd give at least 1/2 to a whole capsule 2 hours after giving the AB.
 
I use Probiocin for my piggies and one dose contains 10 million bacteria.
