Jeffery and Cheryl Vance:
When mixing Ivomec with water how many cc per gallon ?

Jean:
1 1/2 cc/ml per gallon - injectable type.

Jeffery and Cheryl Vance:
Thanks Jean How do u use the Sheep Drench Ivomec A Sheep farmer gave me a new bottle today?

Jean:
I've only used the injectable kind for cattle.

Mike Gilbert:
I use the cattle strength, so adjust accordingly.   I use an eyedropper.   For large fowl, I put 7 to 10 drops on the bare skin above and below the vent and over the pin bones.    The amount depends on size and whether they are infested or not.   There is a high tolerance for this product.   It has been used to treat humans for eye worm in third world countries according to reports I have read.   For bantams, 4 or 5 drops should be enough.    Some drop it into the mouth of the bird.   There is no need for that, as it is absorbed into the system through the skin.
