This vaccine for birds should be administered subcutaneously with a 23 to 26 gauge needle to one side of the caudal end of the breast avoiding the muscle and the keel. Care should be taken not to inject the vaccine into muscle tissue or internal organs or intradermally. Administer the second vaccination on the contralateral side two to three weeks later.
Warming the vaccine to 85 to 90°F before use reduces stress on the bird. It is essential to shake the vaccine before and during use since the vaccine quickly settles.
Shake the bottle of vaccine well before removing each dose with a syringe and needle. Use entire contents when first opened.
