Cochin

According to a wiki page, a Cochin bantam hen weighs 800 grams (28 ounces). At that weight her dose would be .16ml of the paste or the liquid, but it would be okay to give twice as much. Let me weigh both of mine before I give you a dose.

Sounds good...thank you!

Both of mine weigh 1000 grams (2.2 pounds). At that weight mine would get no less than .2ml by mouth for five days in a row.

Ok thanks! The feed and supply was closed so picking it up tomorrow as prevention. Haven't seen anything else in her poop since yesterday but I have never wormed her so would it be a good preventative/maintenance measure?
