but if mareck's is also for 1000 birds its too much vaccine
but i dont have anyone to help me vaccinate them
i can take them to the west valley also if anyone can help
me vaccinate them and if anyone has the vaccine
we have turkeys eggs i can trade for
There is no smaller size.
This is why I go through the process of splitting and storing the tablets for multiple hatchings (in addition to save on shipping).
The dosage, when the tablet is mixed with the solvent, is still the same. Ya mix bottle A with bottle B, and each chick gets one drop injected under the skin. No such thing as overdose, so long as they get ONE drop, injected under the skin.
Everything left goes down the drain.
If you are worried about waste-- do it at night, and vaccinate all your birds. Not just the chicks.
I regularly vaccinate by myself. It is not that hard. It should be easy for you, since you have medical training.

I certainly have some silkie crosses available, but I'm in Tempe, which would be a long drive for you.

Totally agree!
I just kinda hold the treat dish by the bottom, and move my fingers away from the snood. It cracks me up how it just kinda flops there in the dish, you'd think he'd learn to retract it while eating and drinking. And I have to be careful to keep it at turkey height instead of chicken height, as our roos don't seem to mind a little turkey flavor with their scratch.

My tom (RIP) would retract his snood. Made the menfolk giggle like little girls.

Or rabbits. I stopped selling junior rabbits to newbies around Easter, but offer a rental service (which no one seems interested in) so I'd get the animal back after the novelty wore off.
Smart idea, sadly maybe ahead of it's time.
