PeckyBeak Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Currently reading about a method of natural worming handed down through generations which suggests using Ground down, raw, hulled pumpkin seeds that apparantly have a coating that will paralyse the worms, so that they cannot cling to the intestine of the chicken. After the pumpkin seed, follow up with either carrot puree or milk which produces loose droppings to flush out their system and purge their insides Does anyone use this method, or know if it works? Would be good to get away from using chemicals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Worth a try. I used a natural wormer for a long time (not this one) and it didn't do the trick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hen Watch Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 Not heard of that method before. Omlet sell Verm-X in their online shop which is natural. I've not used it myself as it has mixed feedback on this forum. I personally go down the medicated route with Flubenvet. But hopefully someone with a more organic background will come along and answer your post in more detail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
