Lesley Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 It doesn't list 'Ducks' on the tub of Flubenvet - but the Katie Thear book 'Starting with Ducks' says to "watch out for signs of internal worms. If necessary give a vermifuge in the feed" We've not given Flubenvet to the ducks - we just look out for any problems.....and so far, we haven't had any. You could check on the Practical Poultry forum to see what they say over there? Edit: I've just found a bit more in the Katie Thear book (the index in this particular book isn't very helpful ) and she says to use Flubenvet.
