How do the carrots work drumcrow? have never heard of that before, have heard of using garlic as a wormer before but never carrots.
Staffies are softer than you think.

just boil it up and mash it up for them they love it. its a natural wormer think it makes them go the toilet more often and the movement stops the worms hanging on.... or something like that.

Hi Dumcrow you've been using the wrong ACV  just like me and a few others no doubt. Its the unrefined cloudy type which contains the TANNIN which apparently does the business.  See Aunties post in reply to me.

The fact that your chx have been super healthy can't be as a result of ASDA ACV then.  I suspect that this is just like the "white powder and the elephants" story.

Re no ACV available in France and simplifying the science.  From what I've read apples should be equally good at providing the health giving benefits or even cider apple pulp (which is the waste from the pressing process).  It's just that ACV is in liquid form and more convenient to administer.

Regards
Truth through science.

Thanks for that i'll see what i can get then :)
 Drumcrow, i've heard of the carrot thing before, but I didn't fancy my chooks going to the toilet more :ohmy: :D
We have 17 chickens, 3 quail, 2 dogs, 3 cats and that's enough (for this week)
