johnandkymberley Posted July 21, 2011 Author Share Posted July 21, 2011 what about nettex gut conditioner or wormer pellets?xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Do bear in mind that Flubenvet is the only licensed poultry wormer on the market; as such, the others can't be described as wormers (strictly speaking)as there is no scientific proof as to their efficacy.

The Dogmother Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 It's available as either a powder which you mix with the pellets or as pre-mixed pellets. Details and instructions in the FAQ section Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnandkymberley Posted July 21, 2011 Author Share Posted July 21, 2011 Hi, have checked there and the link isnt working, which is best the pellets or the water? also how can i find out how much to give my hens? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 They both do the job, some people prefer the pellets, as they're ready to use. If you buy either, it will tell you on the packet how much to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnandkymberley Posted July 21, 2011 Author Share Posted July 21, 2011 Shall i go for a big packet? which is the most cost effective method? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chucky Mama Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 It is not as cheap but I think that you will find the Marriages Flubenvet pellets the easiest to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 I find them very easy to use, but the Marriages website isn't very clever to order from so I just phone them up and they usually arrive the next day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
