    Such kind thanks, again, Banana! It's actually Ivermectin "Spot-on Treatment, which is the drops that are applied to the skin behind the neck and absorbed into the system through there. I would definitely not want to risk any side effects such as harming the liver, so I will follow the...

    Ivermectin dosing

    Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful response, Banana01! I'm sorry, I failed to mention that my bird is a male pigeon. :) This is what I meant about him spending time outdoors with a wild, untreated flock. As pigeons love flying, mine has become accustomed to flying off with whom he...

    IVERMECTIN-pour on dosage

    Thank you so much for taking the time to respond, Redbrew! If my bird were based strictly indoors, I'm sure every 3 weeks of Ivermectin drops would be sufficient. Tricky situation that he enjoys spending time with the outdoor flocks, but I know he would be unhappy if I forced him to stay...

    IVERMECTIN-pour on dosage

    I know this thread is for chickens, but I'm hoping someone can help lend advice for my pigeon, as I believe Ivermectin for poultry and pigeons is the same in essence.
