Here is the info I have for injectable penicillin:

Penicillin G​

Here is some info:

Picture below is from this site: http://smartools.pharmdev.org/iu.html


The stuff at the feed store is 300,000 per 1 ml, so it's basically 300 mg per 1 ml.

Then what is the best thing I can get from Tractor Supply? I'm trying best I can.

Is he drinking properly? Is he still eating?

He acts totally fine. His leg doesn't bother him, but it is still swollen, and warm.

9 / 2.2 x 100 / 300 = 1.36 ml once a day or every two days is how I read post #31, but I am not a vet, nor do I have any medical training.

Oh, okay, for some silly reason I thought he was limping or acting sick.

He was at start, but now he is doing better. But the leg is still swollen, and warm.

I know you are doing your best. I would give them a call.

I just found this - http://www.exoticpetvet.net/avian/avianmeds.html see what it says about Penicillin G - it is not recommended by this site.

In the meantime, not as a substitute for antibiotics, but I would think about making some oregano tea and cool it down and put that in the drinking water. But I don't know the dosage recommended... so at this point it's just a thought for you to consider.

Give who a call? TSC? Unfortunately my the workers at my local TSC don't know their butt, from a hole in the ground.

Most of them don't. They should have injectable penicillin and water soluble tetracycline or oxytetracycline, but I don't know which of the three would be best for what you're dealing with.

They have all 3, I just don't know which one is best.
