Omlet Smart Autodoor - New in box

[scarlettohara]

I have had Scarlett about six weeks now and the new girls for 3 - when should I think about worming them? And can I buy flubenvet from the internet ?

Have a hunt round the forum for more detailed responses, but in a nutshell, you can worm your hens now if you feel they need it. Flubenvet can be given from an early age. If they are free ranging, then it is a good idea to worm them 3 or 4 times a year.

 

Try googling 'Flubenvet', and you will find several sites from which you can purchase it.

 

For your purposes, the 1% should be adequate, and the instructions about dosage are on the pack.

Thanks all ordered.

So if they free range should they be wormed sooner - I've had mine 10days which is premature to ask- but just wondered when I should think about it? I need to order the stuff and will go for Flubenaet or whatever its called. Thanks for link. They are Omlet hens - just wanted an idea - forgot to ask man. They have been free ranging for 5 days no and love it. Go back into Eglu when had enough which is amazing - all I need now is to oick them up. We are going to try at dusk this weeken when they are sleepy as sugg by you guys

You won't need to worm them yet . I'd leave it a few months, unless they display symptoms.

I'm getting 3 new girls next week and thought I would worm them all in a couple of months when hopefully they are settled together. I've ordered it now so that if there are any problems in the meantime I have it to hand
