Chucky Mama Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 TYLAN Soluble is administered in the drinking water at a concentration of 0.5 g per litre to provide 50-200 mg/kg bw, depending on the age and the water consumption of the birds. Sorry but I don't know whether they are allowed plain water as well - best check with your Vet. You definately can't get it over the counter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 It is prescription only in the UK. I'd have another word with the vet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Sorry, no help here either - I've only ever injected it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfrock Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 Hi Jo - they need to be on it for 7 consecutive days. Mine are on another dose, just in case, having lost my gorgeous Indian yesterday. I had only had her 5 months, and she was never quite right. She was one of the batch I purchased from a certain place back in February ....
