I need to buy some metronidazole for my chicken, but the only place I can find it is TSC. The problem is that the chicken that needs it only weighs a little over a pound, so I would have to split the pill into 5 pieces, and I don't think that's really possible. Is there anywhere else I can get it in smaller doses?
 
Maybe cheat a bit for a rooster, he won't ever be laying eggs...
It's about saving the good stuff for human infections, so not having it enter our food supply, and promoting antibiotic drug resistance.

Actually, that's not why it's banned. It's banned because it's been shown to cause cancer. I I did a thread about this, Let me see if I can find it.
