Sav a caf electrolytes + dosage

[LemonDragon]

I have a 5 week old lethargic hen, I think she may be stressed from travel yesterday...she is smaller than the other girls, also. I have on hand sav a caf electrolytes plus for multispecies... Wondering if anyone has a dosage recommendation for my girl. Chickens are not listed on the instructions of the packet.

You could make some homemade electrolytes—1/4 tsp of sugar and the tiniest pinch of salt dissolved in an 8 ounce/240 ml cup of water. Pedialyte and Gatorade can also be used in a pinch. I don’t know a dosage for your product. If I went ahead and used it, I might use a tsp per gallon of water for just a short time. Poultry Nutridrench or Poultry Cell are handy to keep around for a quick boost. They can be given orally 2 ml per day for a 6 pound chicken.
