Injections for chickens...
« on: November 09, 2010, 17:08 »
Anyone done them.... I have ordered some injectable tylan but am now panicking coz pekin breasts are about as abundant as they are on small boys!!!

I thought it would be easier.... but with all those feathers and little meat on my youngsters,... I am now not so sure :(
I love Pekins, Polands and Seramas :) and eggs!!!

Why not get your vet to show you how? I have done them on people - subcutaneous and intramuscular but not injected my chickens. We were taught to practise on an orange  ::)
Staffies are softer than you think.

I have got an appointment with my very not chickeny vet tomorrow... jus wondered if it will be a waste of money if I cant go through with it afterwards :(

I have injected horses and am not squeamish.... but there is so little meat on a pekin pol that I cant see where it can go :(

I have paid a fair price for the tylan.... plus £8 for the script..... plus what will be anoter £16 to be shown how....


They had better recover and not die of shock cos I stabbed them ;)
