Fishbiotic SMP/TMZ to Oral Suspension for Chicken

[krissyweso]

I was wondering if anyone has any experience in turning Fishbiotic SMZ/TMP 800MG/160MG to an oral suspension for chickens.

Usually, my vet gives me a 240MG/5mL oral suspension, so I'm thinking I would dissolve one pill in 16.6mL of liquid. But what should I use for the liquid so that it has a thickness?

Any tested, tried and true advice would be appreciated!

It's easier to quarter the tablet with a pill cutter. Then pull her wattles straight down and her mouth will open. Quickly put one quarter tablet in the chickens mouth and let go of her wattles so she can swallow it on her own. Do this twice a day for no more than 7 days.
