simone Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 do you stop feeding treat, extras, for the week of worming? also do you stop letting them freerange for the week, which will be hard as always try and get out when go in the WIR thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 I still give some treats (enough to get them back in the run) and still allow free-ranging when I am worming, however, I wouldn't like to guarantee that this is best practice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coco Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 I am worming my chooks this week, I have cut right down on the treats but am letting them out of the run when I get in from work about 4pm. As they go to bed at 7.00 this only gives them 3 hours free ranging. They only have access to the medicated food for most of the day. Yesterday they scoffed the lot.

karlotta Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 I continue to let mine free range all day (as they do everyday) but do cut out the treats. Today is my last day of worming and it'll be nice to give them a few treats again tomorrow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
