So, ive given many shots to animals in my days, but administering these antibiotics to my runner is seeming to be difficult. NOt impossible, just im really uncomfortable because hes a really pure runner, the kind thats real skinny and tall and straight and he doesnt have much meat on him, i go for the breasts or thighs but sometimes i feel like theres not much muscle there, i cant inject into the same spot multiple times...anyone else with a pure runner have any ideas? or suggestions... i tried googling, hoping for a chart that showed a picture of a runner and mapped out spots for injection sites, but my attempts are futile!
 
Is the med to be given in the muscle. I have never given a chicken shots but I guess I always assumed most shots would be sub Q? It that case I would think just under the skin in the neck?

I sure dont know just thinkin
 
As you mentioned, the breast and thighs are really the only two places to do this properly. Alternate from side to side on the breast muscle and your bird has two thighs, so that's two more places. Start over and hopefully by then, the treatment will be finished.
 
its pen-g im administering, so its an intramuscular injection. and yes i've been alternating as i know the risks of muscle being destroyed if you inject into the same spot too many times...
i guess i'll keep on truckin how im goin till the treatment period is over... thanks
