Raina Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Hi all, we bought some Rajah Garlic powder sachet 100G from asda a few days ago(sis used it while cooking),and i heard that if you give hens Garlic Powder it will help to stop the poo from smelling but it did say that it: May Contain Celery May Contain Wheat May Contain Mustard May Contain Sulphur Dioxide/Sulphites so would it be OK for them? Thanks in advance, Raina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Definitely not the right one. You want the 'horse' variety. Available from equestrian shops, ebay and other online sources and agricultural suppliers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 The horsey type will be way cheaper too . You'll get a massive tub for about £6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splodge88 Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Is the normal cooking garlic powder okay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 That would end up costing you a lot over time, I'd imagine. Not sure if there's anything actually wrong with giving kitchen garlic powder (unless there's added salt or something in it?). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kittycat Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 I'm pretty sure there's added salt in kitchen garlic powder so definitely a no-no for the chooks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Definitely not the right one. You want the 'horse' variety. Available from equestrian shops, ebay and other online sources and agricultural suppliers. I use an equestrian one too, there are plenty on offer at feed stores and it's far cheaper. Some of the brands do a refill pack once you've bought the original tub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
