no m8 it was the moxydectin for deffo as it was only the young uns under the race birds i done as they had a few lice on , the stock birds didint get it and there young uns were all fine in the next section , i dont know if it was the exstreem heat a few weeks back and the birds drank more than they should have but the young uns were all flooping about 2 hours after being feed and watered

i took this from a poisons link m8 which i read up on after the squabs died .

 

There is a big safety factor in that an overdose can be tolerated to a point. But I would have said the five mls as a maximun for even a big goose is enough and safe. Don't dose the young birds. They wont have a significant load of worms at this point and young animals dont tolerate moxidectin as well as older birds.

Yes no problem .

Treats hairworm and roundworm and the dose = 5ml per one litre of water for 24 hours .

 

And can be used when breeding ,racing,and moulting .and for best result birds should be treated 3 weeks later J.M.O.

where u get moxi from stb

[ovy1255]

was always instructed to treat twice to stop a reinfestation and to be done within 14days to be effective.some wormers are covered under the small animals regs and as such can be bought over the counter at a pet shop or corn merchant.

one dose of moxi will do in a lot of cases as it stays in there system for weeks

from a vet m8 , regarldless of where it came from it killed the babies as they were lifless in hours , the young in the nest 15 days and older were fine , as i posted when i looked up toxicology on moxi it said its not safe with baby or young birds although it has a high tolerance level in old birds .

 

I would now never use it again with babies in the nest its not worth the risk

can u send me the link as all my reading says there should be no problem at all and i have done it lots without any problems

 

 

it would make a big difference where you got it as moxi comes in different strength but im taking the vet would know the doesage i dont use moxi in the water i use the stuff they use for sheep same thing just different brand name

If you dont use it in water how can you justify saying its safe for babies . If your putting it on the adults skin you are then not adminestering it oraly so its not feed dirrect to babies . It works by macking the worms go doozy and relase there grip , if it does that to the worms im now conviced reading more that it made the young ones go doozy whichthen led to death .It was in the water i use 5ml to 2 literes it said . most links i found say its safe with young ones but on a toxoligy site it said it was safe but should not be used on young pigeons as they had a low tolerance too it compared to old birds ,will see if i can find it again .

 

do you put the drops on the skin ??, you have to remember a full grown pigeon is at least 50 times heavier than a babby a few days old and if the dose is 5 miles to 2 litres it could be far to high for a aby as the parents are pumping the medicated water straight into the young birds .
