xChicken04x Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Hiya, firstly i dont know weather this should be in the chicken clinic so sorry if it is. We bought some Flubenvet wroming powder for Lacey but we dont know how much is supposed to go in the food it says 120g per 100kg of food. We dont have 100kg of food though. How much does everyone else use? thanks for any help xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 I used to use just a small amount on the end of a teaspoon handle, mix it with some water and syringe it into the chooks beak. That way you can make sure that they all get their dosage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xChicken04x Posted August 21, 2007 Author Share Posted August 21, 2007 Ok, thanks for that!!! We havent got any syringe's so i just dipped some grapes in it and gave them all one, do you think thats ok? xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 You can get child dosing syringes (without needles) at most chemists. Each chook needs about 2ml of the suspension. Unfortunately, the powder doesn't dissolve well, so will need stirring between each chook you dose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 we do the grape or raisin method. slice open grape or raisin. get a sharp knife and place small amount of flubenvet on the tip of the knife, place inside the grape or raisin and then seal up the evidence. Give one to each chicken for 7 days. Easy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xChicken04x Posted August 21, 2007 Author Share Posted August 21, 2007 Ok thanks for that, we gave some to them with some grapes and the vet phoned and said to give them some more so we mixed some in with some porrage. Thankyou both xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
