I used some of this stuff today. I've never smelt anything so repulsive in my life. Only the French could make something smell that bad. They should have sprayed the Germans with this stuff in 1914 and it would have saved millions of deaths. I'd prefer the smell of my own flesh burning than this stuff. It lingers in the air, on your clothes and skin.

 

My recommendations for use (As there are no instruction on the tin, what is on the tin is in French, I had it translated but it tells you nothing usefull)

 

1) Pick a location to which you will never have to visit for a good few millenium

 

2) Wear disposable gloves, clothes, hair and skin

 

3) Tell your chickens how much you love them and this is the last resort

 

4) Run yourself a boiling hot bath, aquire some concentrated acid, a diamond coated scrubbing device and some strong perfume/colonge

 

5) Good luck!

Blimey......... That sounds like all out chemical warfare. I was considerding getting some but the problem stopped so I am saved from this temporarily. Have heard it works well though. Perhaps you can give us a progress report on it's effectiveness after all that......

It does smell terrible.....but it works, so it is a price worth paying.

3) Tell your chickens how much you love them and this is the last resort

 

 

I do

 

just as well it works!

 

also remember to do it after the guests have gone and not just before they arrive

what does it treat the chooks for?

 

whatever it is it sure sounds bad!

It's used as an anti peck spray for when you get feather pulling problems - it tastes so awful the offender soon gets the message that feathers dont taste nice any more - works a treat but most certainly a last resort !!

now i get the 'tell them you love them' part!

 

thanks

Am I the only one for whom Ukadex doesn't work?

 

Tried it and the result is that me and the pecked hen stink and the other 3 "bully" hens continue to peck her!

 

Perhaps mine like the taste

[Egluntyne]

Have you tried Bumper bits?

[Chili]

Ukadex didn't work for me either. It was the very last resort having tried isolating the bully, anti peck spray and a bumper bit.

 

I had to rehome her in the end as she was stripping the feathers off everything that moved

What are Bumper Bits? Are they like Peck Specs?

[Hen Watch]

There is some info and pictures of Bumper Bits in FAQ. See this link below.
