Is this the one I need for mite/lice etc? If so, is it the average price for it?

Many thanks

 

Ivermectin drops 0.8%

[Egluntyne]

My Ivermectin drops (Xeno 200) are 0.02%.

 

They were given to me by my vet.

 

I think others have used the ones you ask about though.

 

**Don't forget....Ivermectin is not licensed for poultry use in the UK** and there is an egg withdrawal period during treatment and for 1 week after.

 

My vet doesn't bother with the egg withdrawal with the Xeno 200, but I don't know if this would be sensible with the 0.8% dose.

Thanks Egluntine

 

I will have a look for the xeno 200

[Egluntyne]

You can get it online.

Wouldn't you just use less drops rather than more sprays with this product? In theory wouldn't they use receive the same amount of Invermectin?

I've just been out to weigh the hens! How sad is that?

 

I just want to be sure I don't under or overdose them with Xeno 200.

 

Delia the brown Nick is the smallest she weighs 1.4kg = 7 sprays/1.4ml

 

Daisy is a mid size hybrid she weighs 1.9 = 10 sprays/2ml

 

Darcy is a heavy large black rock she weighs 2.8kg = 14 sprays/2.8ml

 

If you used the 0.8ml Invermectin drops Delia would have 2 drops, Daisy 3 drops? and Darcy 4 drops? Exactly how accurate does it need to be to work?

I've got Ivomec in the guinea pig cupboard, I think I'll go & weigh my chooks & give them a drop or 2. Thanks for the figures - I did wonder how much to give.

With the guineas I give it orally because sometimes their skin reacts, wonder if you could do this with the chickens? (making sure it is the oral Ivomec & not the injectable).

I use This as I have it in for scale mites on our cornsnake. It's Ivermectin in a 0.02% spray but waaaaaaay cheaper and I can get it from my local pet shop.

I use Ivomec Eprinex (cattle pour on) and it's the same prices as the one you've spotted on ebay, but I get 250ml for that price.

It's very effective too

I will second that Claret

Never had a bug problem since I have been using it

Wow...that is about half the price of Xeno 200!

We have just been given xeno 450 from the vet. It was very easy because it is basically one tube for a very small bantam, two tubes for the average chicken and multiply up from there.
