Can I put Tylan 50 injectable in Water?

[naught]

It seems like my chickens have been passing around a cold or something......was thinking I would just dose them all through water but all I have is the injectable. Can I put that in their water? and how much per gallon?

No it is meant to be given as an injection into the breast muscle. If you give it orally, it must be given straight by mouth, undiluted. 1/2 ml for every 5 lb of weight, 1/4 ml for bantam, 1 ml for over 5 lb. daily for 5 days.

x2. Adding tylan injectable to water will make it ineffective, that's what tylan soluable powder is for.

I can't do needles but squirting it down there throat would not be a issue

Pull the wattles down and the mouth will open. If the bird struggles, dont let go of the wattles...she will tire. Then squirt the liquid in her mouth and immediately release the wattles so she can swallow the liquid on her own. If you dont quickly release the wattles, she could aspirate, then there would be problems.

Perhaps these images, and this article, from Craig Hopkins might be useful here to be sure the syringe is being inserted properly:

Can you review the Tylan 200 injectable dosage? How much and how frequent to dose?

Can you please review the Tylan 200 injectable dosage amount and frequency? I’m planning to start treatment tmrw and am feeling unsure.
