[AskAVet] mini horse help needed

I just acquired a miniature horse last week. This guy has really been through it. He has bite marks all over him and has a cresty neck that has broken over. He is very sweet. I got a neg coggins with him and that's all the info I have. He seems to be fighting a cold now. He is coughing and has nasal discharge that was clear yesterday and is yellow today. He also has some discharge from his right eye. I lost my job this spring and can't really afford a vet visit if I can help it. Would penicillan help? If so, do you know how much I should give him? I'd say he's about 200 pound or so. Thanks!!
