Are these little pills ?

 

[trailchick]

Yes, I got mine on ebay....

It is actually
Metronidazole . I think I paid $10 on ebay for

250mg - 50 count.

Could crush them into something they could eat like a grape.

Fish zole is also known as Flagyl.
Peafowl peeps use it for treatment for Blackhead.

The aquariam enthusiasts are selling it on ebay without a prescription requirement
so it will be under fish supplies.

I dont know if Jeffers, DRsFosterSmith, or Cutler Supply.

I've seen on here that people said you could get it at Walmart in the
Fish Supply section but ours in La Junta nor Pueblo had it.

Sorry for the late reply...I have been busy here at home crashing after school but one day at school I saw this topic but forgot my BYC password...Anyways I am soooo sorry for your loss! Lady Di was so beautiful and I know you really really loved her! I hope your other peafowl will not meet the same unusual fate. A few days after your Di died, one of my little white peachick started looking a little lethargic. I think it was from the cold. She wouldn't eat the normal food I feed them and I got worried. Last time I saw a peachick like that I had to give it some safeguard but I decided to just keep an eye on her since I had recently given all the peafowl safeguard. I decided to grab some dandelion leaves growing in the yard to the little white peachick, and she came to life snatching the greens and eating them and yesterday was when I gave her the greens and today she looked like she was never looking bad at all! I really hope the other peachicks you have can fill that place Lady Di had in your heart. After Dragon died raising Peep really helped comfort me and Peep has a very special place in my heart.

I have never heard of using metronidazole for gapeworm, just for blackhead. Fish Zole (Metronidazole) is an antibiotic, not an anthelmintic...

MY WAY BAD -

Fish Zole or Metronidazole exerts a bactericidal action on gram positive and some gram negative bacteria.
Used for Blackhead: Histomonas melagridis is a protozoan parasite that acts
together with facultative bacteria to produce the condition of Blackhead.
Symptoms of blackhead:
•Poor appetite, disinterest
•Poor growth
•Sulphur-yellow diarrhea
•Blue color to the head
•Blood in faeces
•Progressive depression and emaciation
Treatment with FishZole:
3 tablets per gallon of water for 3 days. Mix a fresh dose each day.

Gape worm Treatment:
SageGuard for goats (Liquid):
3cc per gal of water for 3 days then repeat in 14 days.
Mix a fresh dose each day.

Ivermectin:
½ cc (bird over 1 year) given as shot just under the skin (between shoulder blades)
or as drench down the throat.

I hope this clears this up,,,,
When I am wrong I will admit it.

Glad you caught the mistake, you made want to go back and edit those past post. just in case somebody doesn't treat for gape worms with fish zole. above infor is correct. but sometime people don't read the whole thread.
