Worming
« on: May 17, 2010, 23:37 »
Our chooks are 20weeks old now approx when and how often should we treat them for worms, they are on a concrete pad for a run which is cleaned and disinfected daily. We are still new to chook keeping and would rather ask what seems silly questions rather than make mistakes (although no doubt we will).
two thing you should never worry about, yesterday and tomorrow.

From what you describe you shouldn't have too much trouble with worms so twice a year should be ample.  Use Flubenvet which is safe and effective for a broad range of worms.  You can start now.

Don't get conned into paying a fortune for flubenvet. My local supplier charges £24.00 for a 60g tub so I bought off the internet for £14.00 with free postage.
