joybelle Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I got my chooks from omlet last October and I am wondering if and when I need to worm them. They freerange part of everyday and I havnt noticed any signs of them having worms. I would like to know which brand is the best and easiest to use. regards joybelle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I would routine them any time now if they free range regularly. Opinions vary on this though. Mine love worms and slugs, which are abundant in my garden, so even though I have never seen any worms (many are microscopic anyway) I'm not taking any chances. I do my girls routinely every 4 months. I use **Flubenvet** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 im the same as Eglutine. My lot free range a lot of the time so I worm them every 3/4 months with flubenvet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I would do it regularly. Mine have never had worms as far as I know, but there are a couple of sad threads on the 'Chicken Clinic' forum about people who have recently lost chickens to worms. Better safe than sorry.
