vikpow Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Hi Guys, i know there has been several posts about Flubenvet but am still confused! Dont want to get it wrong for my girls. I have a tub of Flubenvet medicated premisture- 2.5%- it did not come with a scoop of any kind. How much do i need to use and with how much feed? My kitchen scales arent precise enough to mesure grams- wat can i do? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 There is a useful bit in the FAQs section here - viewtopic.php?f=41&t=4619 1/2 teaspoon of flubenvet to 2 kgs of pellets. Hope this helps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BocBoc Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 We had the same problem but decided on 1 x level teaspoon for three chickens, mixed in with a bowl of rice, every evening for a week. Egg production was fine, the girls were fine Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christian Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 It doesn't seem much, but it depends on whether you are using the 1% or 2.5 % dose. I use the 1/2 teaspoon method to 2 kgs pellets, with 2.5% mixture as it works out very expensive to use the 1% premixture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eggy-Bread Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Hi, I asked about this a while ago and was advised to cut a grape in two, dunk each half in some Flubenvet then you can individually feed each chook one half of grape/Flubenvet. Works for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
