I keep forgetting .5 isn't that small of a dose...   It's when I am doing doses like .18 or so that I need the micro dose syringes. 

No, it's not that small.

And to put the dosage math in a different way... 2T is 29.57353 ml/gal.  4 quarts in a gal, 7.3933825 ml/qt.  4 cups in a quart, 1.8483456 ml/cup.   

I have a headache looking at all of those numbers.

Maybe Frosty could get you the proper oral drench numbers for the Corid? I like Frosty!

In drinking water: treatment - add 16 oz per 100 gals of water

16 divided by 100 = .16 (because you are only using 1 gallon of water)

.16 oz is equal to 4.7317647301 mls

5 mls is equal to 1 tsp



So about 5 ml per gal, 1.25 ml/qt, .3125 ml/cup.

My money is ALWAYS on Frosty!

Divide into 3 doses, .1 ml per dose. This is where the smaller syringes come in really handy. Hard to be accurate with small numbers like that on the 3 or 5 ml syringes.

Got it.!

Sooooooooooooo, how much do I give by mouth (mixture) in the syringe?

 

[kuntrygirl]

Ok, the Corid is at my house as we speak (type). e

We posted at the same time... about .1ml/dose 3x a day. (That's 'point one', not 1 ml)
