I purchased 5 percent toltrazuril for a (presumed coccidiosis outbreak..white runny poo and diarrhea) in a 15 mL bottle from all bunnies website for my peafowl.
I just read it is not water soluable and it is for oral dosing. Is this true?
Can I mix it with water and what is the dosage for 2 months to 6 months old peafowl. I tried looking up on this site but everything is per kg. Which I think is equal to 2.2 lbs if I'm correct.
The last time I used it it was a 2.5 percent and came in 1 ml vials from homelabs.
Very confused. Any help would be so great.
 
I give the 5% stuff orally at 20 mg/kg.

Math per pound:
1 / 2.2 x 20 / 50 = 0.18 ml per pound once daily for 2-3 days.
 
If yours is like mine, it's not water-soluble and must be given orally.

I found this old post about Pantacox. Should I do this instead?

"The dosage for peas is 12 ml per gallon. You do not need to make that much so I would cut that down to maybe a half-pint, (one cup). One cup would be 0.75ml. Many people have told me that they will let the birds drink the same mixture for two days if they do not finish what is made up the first day. Since you are making so little I would make fresh the second day."
