Nystatin dosage is 200,000 to 300,000 units per kilogram (every 2.2 pounds of weight) 2 to 3 times per day. I would probably start with 4.5 to 5 ml twice a day. Here is a thread from casportpony about dosage:

Ok. Thank you. I've had issues with one vet and then giving super low dosing and then another giving seemingly correct dosing of meds. The lesser wise vet gave me this led but said 1 ml once a day. Oy oy oy.

Dosage of many meds can be higher per pound in chickens, especially some of the antibiotics. Casportpony’s info came from Plumbs Veterinary Manual which is pretty good.

Thanks. It can be so confusing with so many resources!
