Which one do I use and how much? He can’t walk rn due to the pressure and the spurs. I cut them but they left deep indents in his leg. He is a 5 yr old silkie rooster and weights 2.6 lb. Is that too small? he’s been sleeping in a cushioned dog bed with towels, but he’s so comfy that he will not drink. He will eat if I put it in front of him but not drink. What do I do????????

Either one will work. It's half, or quarter of low dose aspirin for 3 days.

Do you have photos of the deep indentions in his legs?

Since he's on the smaller side, I'd give 1/4 of an 81mg Aspirin twice a day for up to 3days.

Place the food and water up higher so he doesn't have to bend to reach it. Maybe you have block of wood, a brick or something to set the food/water on.
