There's generally a withdrawal time for any meds you use, typically 7-10 days, and that usually goes for milk, meat, and eggs. As long as you're careful to dispose of any eggs from this chicken, it'd be fine.
I'd use an 18 guage (guage is the thickness of the needle) 1/2" long needle. I'd also use a 1cc syringe if you can find it. With this small of a dosage, it's easier to dose the correct amount with a smaller syringe. You put the needle on the syringe, flip the bottle of meds upside down, insert the needle, and draw back the plunger on the syringe until you get the correct amount. Sometimes you can draw slightly over the amount you need, then tap the syringe with your finger to get the air bubbles to the top, then you can push out the extra meds to get the correct dose (and that'll push the air bubbles out of the syringe).
To give the chicken meds, you want to give it intramuscularly (IM) in the breast. Just hold her (or have someone else hold her), and insert the needle in the meatiest part of the breast. Slowly press the plunger in, and then withdraw the needle after you've given the meds.
It's easy peasy!
