For 4 week old piglets we use 5/8" 18G needles. I wouldn't of thought much bigger then that would be needed
I'm not scared to be seen, I make no apologies. This is me!

Out of  curiousity why not don't you give them powdered wormer you incorporate with the food, isn't that a lot easier than injecting?
