quickcluck Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Can anybody let me know how much to use and for how long? Do you put it in water?

Tink Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 I bought some from the Omlet shop and it says there "You simply add one or two drops to a pint of water" Is this doseage a bit on the low side?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quickcluck Posted July 17, 2009 Author Share Posted July 17, 2009 I'll probably size up as it'll be hard to get them to drink a pint of water out of a super glug! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Citricidal is very bitter. If you add too much, there's a chance you might stop the hens from drinking enough water. When I bought my first bottle of Citricidal, Johannes advised me to use 2 drops per litre of water for drinking or 20 drops per litre for cleaning out the Eglu.
