I’m having trouble figuring out dosage for syringe application of tylan 200. My chicken is 5 pounds. I need to know how much and how often. Any help would be great!!

You'd give her 1/4ml, orally, every 6-8 hours for a five-pound chicken.

I should have been more clear! I’m looking for injection dosage

Most folks give the injectable Tylan, orally (PO) because giving it IM can cause muscle site necrosis. If you have the injectable, you'd be better off giving it orally with a syringe.

I would only use 0.05 ml per pound of the Tylan 200 and give it orally 3 times daily for 3-5 days. If using Tylan 50, then I would give 0.25 ml per pound 3 times daily. Both of the injectables Tylans have been either out of production or hard to find for a couple of years. Many can find Tylosin soluble powder to use in the water online for pigeons.

Sorry, I should have been more clear. The OP mentioned the bird weighs five pounds, so 0.05ml x 5 = so 0.25ml TID would be the final calculated dose. Not, 1/4ml per pound.
