[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 10456"] The best antibiotic for blackleg is penicillin, not tetracycline. If it is indeed blackleg, the course is: activation of the spores by localized anoxia, gas production by these anaerobic bacteria, toxins also produced which drop the animal and cause severe muscle damage and death. Kidney failure can result as well. There are several websites with a description of the disease, this happens to be the first one I saw when I searched.
