Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

How do you figure the dose for Tylenol/ acetaminophen?

Do you use human infant dosages and the liquid version with dropper?

This is the Tylenol and dose I use. It’s for infants 0-23 months. You need to be aware of the strength of the dose.

For infants it’s 80mg / ml. That means each 1cc (which is the same as 1ml) there is 80mg of Tylenol in it.

The dose for a chicken is 10mg / kg. So a 2kg (4.4lbs) chicken would get 20mg, this is 1/4 of the 80 mls.

Thus you would give 1/4cc ( same as 1/4ml).

I am dog sitting for my Vet who has flown out to a horse show.

This is George

Hard to get a photo he’s worse than the chickens running around!

Do you like his heart he has?

I give up! The chooks have taken over. In the kitchen, in the bathroom, yards and storage spaces. I’m hiding in my room. Even animal control is too scared to assist!

I tried to kawwwwl a meeting with them all, but I couldn’t talk over the roosters screaming at me!
Maybe soon they will settle down and realize where those treats come from.!! I know the ladies are already upset. Surprisingly Mr Wyandottey has kept his beak shut over this trying time.

Ginger has discovered the tree nests. Splash flew up to see what she was doing up there. Then Tall Tim had to inspect the nest after Ginger was done. Ozzy tried but failed to scale the side of the tree. Einstein went up, but preferred Miss Floppy’s old spot further up, and eventually abandoning the tree for her current tree? Or to forage? Perhaps she wasn’t ready.
