Aspirin Dosages

I keep forgetting dosages, or the recommended amount so Im posting here =)

Approx. 1 baby aspirin (no substitutes unless sure okay for chickens) crushed into one cup water.

30lb. tom ~ 3 81mg. baby/cardiac dose aspirin a day (actual calculated dose 68mg x3 per day).. This is a little high, but acceptable. You can just crush 81mg. aspirin, make 4 equal piles and (if you can get him to eat grapes) daub it up and feed it to him three of the piles. 15lb. just half the dose. 10lb. 23mg. TID (one of 4 piles). The aspirin might not do anything for him at all if the process is not inflammatory. Definitely check for abcesses on ankles (put a lot of wt. them when they hunker down). If he is drinking water regularly just dissolve a 325mg. Aspirin in a pint of water.(that confused me =_=)

Aspirin: 1 baby aspirin in 1 cup water or up to 5 325 mg aspirins in a gallon of water.

what did you even have to remember that for? i forget why :Roll

Think it was for my australorp when she was limping.......can't remember if anything else. But did it so if something serious were to happen to my or anyone elses bird, they can find quick conversions of aspirin for the bird.
