I have a single canary (approximately 32 grams in weight) with scaly leg mite (Knemidokoptes pilae) and suspected air sac mites. I would like to treat him with S76 in his drinking water, because handling him stresses both me and the bird. Your book, Canary Health, does not give instructions for treating a single bird in this fashion. May I do so, and at what precise dosage? He has two drinking tubes, each holding 2 ounces of water. My dropper has marked dosages from 0.05 to 0.5 ml. I would appreciate your recommendation very much!
