Customer Reviews
An online avian vet recommended I treat my canary with these meds as a precaution after another cage bird of mine died from what he diagnosed as a viral or bacterial infection. I did so and my canary is fine. Thanks BirdPal!
You CAN orally dose this for birds!
Use distilled water and dilute it 1:1 to make it 25mg/ml. I tried it as is and my bird kept aspirating, which is why it says not to dose orally for birds. But I have multiple and do not want to under or over dose, so oral via syringe is the only practical solution. Never lean your bird back when dosing medicine, keep the bird upright, hold the head steady with your hands, then dose it AT THE SIDE OF THE BEAK, not straight. You will aspirate the bird if you dose it directly into the beak. The medication as-is is the consistency of cold honey. It is very thick and hard to swallow. But it is functional!
It’s seems to be working great for my mice. I did their water change for 7 days and that appears to have help cure the streptococcus
Yes thank you good quality fast service I appreciate it very much.
