[QUOTE="Antje77, post: 2514072, member: 372207"] I took it to this chatty thread in the General chat section of the forum because I didn't want to derail or scare the person who posted the other thread. :) I've only used pens as well, but with the old syringes you pinch some skin and inject at an angle to inject subcutaneously. I've done it wit a guinea pig needing medication, and with a goat too. The goat needed both a intramuscular injection and a subcutaneous one, I was instructed to use the same needle for both. For the one in the muscle I just rammed it in the goat's neck muscle, for the subcutaneous one I pinched and injected at an angle. Told the vet injecting the goat myself wouldn't be a problem at all, but that was before I saw the needle! :eek: Still, I managed! :) A goat's skin isn't much thicker than a human's, so if you can inject under the skin with this you definitely can with the ones in [USER=388932]@Grant_Vicat[/USER] 's picture!
