Can you use a 23 gauge needle for a flu shot?
It could be used as long as the needle length is approximately 1 1/2 inches long so that it reaches the muscle tissue. The flu vaccine injections are given IM (intramuscularly) except if it is the new intradermal type of vaccine, which has its own delivery system with a very tiny needle injected into the layers of skin. The typically sized needle for IM administration of medication is a 22-25 gauge, 1 1/2 inch IM needle. 23 gauge is slightly larger around than a 25 gauge, so it is possible you could feel it slightly more when inserted. A 23 gauge needle has an outer diameter of 0.02525 inches. A 25 gauge needle has an outer diameter of 0.02025 inches. As long as you are able to correctly measure the proper dosage, it could be used.
What part on the horses body do you give them the shot?
You can give them the shot on the large muscle that runs down the neck or one of the large muscles on the horse's hindquarters. Always inject the strangles vaccine on the butt. It can make the horse's neck or face swell.

Because it is better not to inject air into the blood stream. enough air will kill you.

Where do you give a horse a penicillin shot?
Actually it is a little different than a shot. With a horse you want to completely sink the needle into the horse and pull the plunger slightly to ensure that there is no blood (because you don't want the penecillin going into the veins, only muscle) and if there is no blood push the plunger to inject the penecillin. If there is blood you need to pull out and start over. As for where, it has to be in a large muscle area such as the side of the neck or the rump. You also need to put it in a different area each time. The penecillin makes them sore and causes a lump at the injection site. How much depends on the weight of the horse. 1 ml for each 100 pounds of body weight. You can find this out by weight taping them. Also, you would give more if they seem to need it because of infection. However, you would not give it to them if they have no infection. Ensure that you are using clean, new needles each time. You can cause a secondary infection if you inject them with a dirty needle. And finally, you would give it to them for at least one week but no more than two. If you do not continue with giving it to them the same time each day you would be doing this for nothing. For major infections you would dose 2 times a day for one or two days and then once per day. Ensure you do not hit bone when injecting and your horse will get upset, especially with the full round of injections because they will know that what you are getting ready to do hurts. Do not attempt to hold the horse and give the horse the shot and unless they are really unfazed by previous shots, do not tie them to give them the shot because they could rear or pull and hurt you, themselves, and/or tear down what you have them tied to.
