Hi Myzomela,
the reason why I am asking is what is the dosage for finches because I have the baytril 10% and it is given to pigeons. :purplex:

Is this an injection or an oral medication?
I think you will find that this formulation is too concentrated for finches for direct dosing; If it is injectable I would hesitate to use it in-water but you could try 2mls per litre drinking water, but I'm not sure how stable it would be or how well it would work.

Does it have any directions on the bottle??
