MCL Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 I have been feeding our 4 new rescue ladies on ordinary layers pellets - which they love. I bought a bag of layers pellets with verm-x in Question is - can I mix the 2 together. I'm pretty sure they will eat anything, to be honest, I believe the verm-x is meant to be a deterant for worming, as a newbie can anyone please reassure me this will be fine. Thank you for any help/info .. New Mad Chicken Lady... 🐔🤪 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Yes you can mix the feeds, but Verm-X doesn’t do much and I really wouldn’t bother using it. If a hen has worms, it doesn’t kill them. You be better off using a proper wormer like Flubenvet or get a poo sample checked for worms. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ditto - mix them to use it up and then save yer money and just buy a good quality feed such as Smallholder. Run a faecal test every quarter to see if they need worming with Flubenvet.
