This is pointless apparently.

I already splinted it, I need to know how much penicillin to give.

Your splint looks like it might not work well which is why I posted the manual. Anyway, here is the penicillin info you're looking for:

Penicillin G


Here is some info:

Do you need help calculating the dose?

@Gunleather, how's your turkey doing?

Ok so far, she is eating and drinking, I haven't removed the splint or anything else yet, but her toes look the right color and are not cold or hot there is no swelling or heat above the splint. I have her in a dog kennel in the house also. Praying she will heal up.

We had a bird break it's leg there too. No penicillin was given. We splinted, kept in a small bin to reduce movement and separated from flock. He was close with one of our hens so we kept them together. Gave water with nutridrench and he healed up whole and healthy. Changed the splint every 3 or 4 days to keep clean. The big trick is restricted movement.
