Hi there,
I have been using metrodiazanole on a turkey who was diagnosed w/ blackhead. He's been on it for the last 2 weeks and is not improving. I got ahold of some dimetridazole, but I cannot find out the dosage (in mg/kg) for turkeys since it is pretty much banned in poultry. Can anyone advise? My vet won't give me the dosage since she doesn't want to get in trouble and I don't think she could find it anyway since it's not listed in any formularies, except for budgies and pigeons. Would you just extrapolate the dosage for turkeys from what budgies and pigeons would take?
Thank you for any help.
