flubenvet

- When using Flubenvet 2.5% I should use 6g in 5kg of food
- 1.43 mg flubendazole per kg body weight daily = 10.01mg per kg over 7 days
- w/2.5% -> 57.2mg/kg.day
- w/FV 5% oat mix (5% of 2.5%) 1.144GRAMS per Kg per day (8.008 GRAMS per Kg per week)
- w/2.5% -> 400.4mg/kg.week
- as of 8-19-12, birds weight is 22+3*18+5+8*3.5 = 109 lbs = 49.54kg --> 19.8 grams (2.5%) for the flock for 1 week
- 5% of 2.5% OAT MIX: -> 1.144 grams/kg/day -> 8grams/kg/week
- mixed into oats at 5% by weight -> 396 grams for flock per week (13.94oz)
- or 1.99oz per day.
- of the 109 lbs, chickens are 30%, turkey 70%
- thus 4.2 oz for chickens, 9.8 oz for turkey.
