best wormer for the hens

[DUCKWING 302]

Flubenvet but just trying some Gamefowl wormal they say its the best i'll let you know how i get on

 

IVE USED WORMAL TABLETS ........OVER TWENTY YRS , A GOOD WORMER .. BUT HAS ITS DRAW BACKS

 

IVOMEC ? ............... AGAIN USED IT AT LEAST 15 YRS AND OVER THAT PERIOD HAVE FOUND IT WORKS IN MOST CASES BUT IS DEFINATELY NOT 100 % , SOMETHING FOR YOU LADS TO THINK ABOUT !!

 

PANACURS A DECENT WORMER ....WHICH I STILL USE NOW IN MY PROGRAM

ALSO ANY OF THE BRANDED HORSE WORMERS WHICH ARE AVAILABLE IN THE SYRINGE ......... APPROX 1 " TO A CUP FULL OF WATER , MIX WELL AND ADD TO 1 GALLON ( USUALLY IVERMECTRINE BASED )

 

TRIED FLUBENVET .... WASNT IMPRESSED ,

 

CIDER VINGAR ISNT A WORMER , ......... GARLIC IS AN INHIBITOR AS WELL AS A CLEANSER ......... WORMS DONT LIKE TO BREED IN A BIRD REGULARY DOSED WITH GARLIC

 

GAPES ????????? ...................... IS GAPE WORMS , USUALLY PICKED UP BY THE BIRDS EATING WORMS / SLUGS ETC ...... ANTIBIOTICS WILL DO LITTLE APART FROM CURE ANY SECONDARY INFECTIONS , THE AFFECTED BIRDS NEED TO BE WORMED

 

BOSCO ............. FROM YOUR DESCRIPTION I WOULD GUESS YOUR BIRD HAS COCCI

 

 

ALL THE BEST

would you say it is beneficial to give hens garlic to prevent worms if so how, what I mean is in their water, their food?

 

Also would it affect the taste of the eggs.

 

Best regards

WELL MATE ,

 

 

I THINK ITS HIGHLY BENEFICAL TO GIVE GARLIC TO YER STOCK .......... DOGS / CHOOKS OR PIGEONS !

 

 

BEEN USING IT OVER 20 YRS ......... ITS AS SIMPLE AS THIS ....... I WOULDNT HAVE BOTHERED IF I HADNT SEEN RESULTS

 

I FIND THE EASIEST WAY IS TO GET A COUPLE OF CLOVES STICK THEM A FEW TIMES WITH A KNIFE / SKEWER ETC AND DROP THEM IN YOUR WATERING CAN ,............. AT NIGHT POUR SOME WARM WATER OVER THE CLOVES AND LEAVE OVERNIGHT READY TO WATER THE FOWL NEXT MORNING

 

ALL THE BEST

No wormer on the market is 100% affective against worms and none claim to be. But with good management and a good alternating worming routine you shouldn't have many problems
