5ml per litre of water.

Cheers is it a 1 day treatment

Cheers is it a 1 day treatment

Suggest make up fresh in the morning, feed birds twice, rather than full amount in 1 go. Shouldn't affect them i.e. vomiting, but should take in greater volume of medicated water.

Sorry, yes 24hr treatment.

The moxidectin mixed for pigeons is very easy to administer and has a very wide range and is most effective used every four to five weeks. JMHO .

But like everything with racing pigeons you will have the top fanciers who have not treated their pigeons for years.

[soupie]

1mg/ml is 10ml per litre

2mg/ml is 5ml per litre

 

depends what strength yours is mate

10ml to a litre

[William Reid]

The moxidectin I use and have advised other fanciers to use is 2mg and added to the water at 5ml per liter of water for 24hrs . The water should be left to stand the night before and grit and minerals removed for the length of the treatment. Again not to upset anyone this is only my opinion

Ive always used cydectin sheep drench which is 1mg and therefor 10ml to a litre, works well and doesnt put the birds up nor down.

Thanks lads for the replies looked up an old topic from a few years back when I asked the same question and it was 5ml/litre for 24 hrs anyway the test came back showing slight roundworm in the droppings so should be ok with this dosage but as rab says I'll do them again in 10 days time ðŸ‘
