mole Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 how do you add it to their food? can you use granules rather than powder? how much tea spoon per grub mixed in or an egg cup full? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 Powder or granules added to the food is fine, a teaspoon or so per grub or two for a larger feeder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dixie chick Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 I read somewhere on here that you could just pop a clove or two in the drinking water - has anyone tried that or would the chooks gobble it up whole? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of mine did that! I dont do that now. i also found they drank a lot less water when the garlic clove was in there which cant be good for them in the heat!

jennydavies Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 I put garlic granules in their water, they love to eat the little bits of garlic and I put a quarter teaspoon for four litres of water every other day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chick wiggle Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 I just stick a scoop of powder in their food, very technical and precise (NOT!) does the job though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sewitall Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 Don't go too crazy with it though - I think I added a teaspoon too much to the pellets 'cos I can catch a whiff of garlic in the run when I sit I with them and when I was examining their vents the surrounding feathers smelt of garlic too.
