pour-on/ vs injectible/ vs drench = Ivermectin questions

[Jenbirdee]

I have sheep drench ivermectin. can it be used topically (like on the back of a chickens neck) OR is it only for Oral use, and if so, can it be given to a chicken orally?
I thought that perhaps only the 'pour on' kind can be used topically?
and is the 'injectible' kind used orally or topically for a chicken?

I use the sheep topically and it seems to take care of mites

hi again @Fluffy Lambs
do you repeat in 14 days ?

and then is 4 months later too soon to treat again?

Hi I don't repeat I just treat whenever they have mites seems like 1 dosing will clear them for awhile

and then is 4 months later too soon to treat again?
