I have a white board in my bird room where i have written all the dosage rates of Meds for my birds,one glance and you know how much to use.
For moxi it is 5ml/litre or one to two drops " straight " on the skin usually on the back of the neck.
Baycox is 3ml to the litre of water.

Hey everyone,
I was just wondering - I have one cage to worm (new birds) and was wondering if I could safely halve the dose rate - i.e. 2.5ml to 500ml of water instead of the normal 5ml/1L?
If not, can I refrigerate the leftover wormer to use the next day? or is that a terrible idea?

THanks,
Painted4

Of course its ok. At 2.5ml/500ml it is the same dosage. Or for eg. 0.5ml/100ml same rate lesser quantity, same effect.
