A visitor from the UK looking for advice about new pea ownership

How do they look when sick? They been walking round rooting an stuff she had her head in back just for a few seconds but then running bout

How's my math? Not one of my strong points but your working out is good

A 24g syringe is about £10 and a 100ml bottle is about £15 barring a few pence on both. But I'm thinking the liquid will be cheaper in the long run. I'm going to swop to this and use for all my birds, dogs and cats.

ETA ~ £1 = $1.42 right now.

Do you have a way to take pictures?

Liquid is a much better deal, 'cause 4 24 gram syringes = 98 ml. Thanks for the info.

A sick bird will keep their eyes shut, wings droopy, head tucked into the body, and tail dropped. They don't want to move much either. They look like they are in pain is the easiest way to explain it.

I Agree with Birdrain 100% they will look uncomfortable and out of place, at first sight of trouble jump on it quick, peas wait until the last moment before they look sick and it can be too late if not treated fast.

I would use the liquid Panacur and give 0.23 ml per pound orally for 5 days in a row.

10% Panacur is 0.23 ml per pound orally for five days. @KsKingBee, do you repeat this dose in ten days?
