enpekt Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Two of our 6 chooks are now laying but the others aren't quite. As they are eating lots of slugs and worms and the ground is very wet I wanted to start the Flubenvet but is this too early for their age, or can you start anytime?

C&T Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 We had to worm ours just before they were laying. I am not sure how old they should be before worming though, if there is a minimum age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Not sure how old your girls are, but Flubenvet can be given from as early as 5 weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enpekt Posted March 6, 2009 Author Share Posted March 6, 2009 Thanks for that, chook details on PeckyBeak's sig. They're about 25 weeks and two are laying, one of which seems a bit peaky, open-mouthing sometimes, scraggy-looking (possible moult). However, she'll push the other five out of her way for food and treats, her eyes are bright and her tail's up... A bit like her "mum"!
