I brought my group of buddies outside and someone caught mites.
I've had success in the past using ivermectin for mites but it has been a couple years and I'm unsure of the safe dosage for the new group, which are different weights.
Here is an older picture showing Sneezy, Pinot, miniTux and Andy's face.
Sneezy - 700g or ~24.7oz
Pinot - 625g or 22oz
miniTux - 800g or ~28.2oz
Andy - 625g or 22oz
Andy and miniTux are dumbo bros roughly 2/3 of a year old.
Sneezy and Pinot are standard rats and also brothers about 1 and 1/2 years old.
Andy was the runt of the litter and has always been tiny but Pinot used to match miniTux and Sneezy for weight and physical size. He has lost weight and become very inactive and scabby, suffering from the mites moreso than anyone else.
I would appreciate some dosage suggestions to prevent over and under dosage.
I am using 1.87% Ivermectin oral paste, which mixed into mashed banana disapears instantly :thumbup:
Thanks for the Help
