What about the api general cure? I could get it tomorrow so sooner. Is it not as affective? And what would be the dosage

How much does the chicken weigh? Dosage is 25 mg per pound daily for 5 days. The API product has is powder and is 500 mg per teaspoonful. I have never used it, but it might be best to mix it in water and give the dose with a syringe. Check my math but if you mixed the 500 mg in 10 ml of water, that would equal 50mg per ml. So, 1/4 ml would equal 25 mg. I will check back tomorrow.

A kitchen scale from Walmart kitchen products is fairly inexpensive.

If it is canker, it can grow quickly. Most people say that canker has a bad odor, but I haven’t treated it. He should be isolated from others, and you should disinfect the feeders and waterers with 10% bleach water. Scroll down to the second article here to read an article about canker:

Would the cankers cause his to have raspy breathe though
