Hello all,
I hope you can help me. My 2 year old Buff Orpington Tok is a very poorly chicken, she has sour crop and is completely off her food.
The vets have aspirated her crop twice and she's had an enema to ensure no blockages. I have given her Epsom salt washes, massaged...but her crop keeps filling up.
I'm currently worming her with Flubendazole to ensure that's not the underlying issue (her poops were very watery with white and green), but I'm also treating her sour crop with Fluconazole.
This is where I'm confused. I bought 150mg tablets yet when I open them and weigh the contents this comes to 34mg. So I'm at a loss as to how to dose her (and worried I might have overdosed her- I mixed the 34 mg with water and gave her about 1/3 - 5ml of the mixture) can anyone advise? (FYI she weighs only about 1.5kg as she's barely been eating)
And have I now harmed her by potentially giving her too much? Any help advise greatly appreciated
