ok, my girls are due to be wormed the end of the month. i have been looking around at the worming stuff, but it all seems a bit confusing on the doseage side of things. is there  nothing that just says feed this to them every day for a week, without having to measure and work out weights, sizes number of scoops and the position of the moon  .
maybe im reading it all wrong, and making it more confusing than it is. please help

What have you got to worm them with Needssomehelp.

Flubenvet 1% is the best stuff.  That is 6 grams of powder per 2kg feed.  You need a decent set of electronic kitchen scales to get the 6 grams.  I usually measure out the feed, take a bit of it and mix the wormer thoroughly into that.  Then mix this thoroughly into the rest of the 2kg.  A tiny dash of vegetable oil helps the powder adhere to the feed.

I put the medicated feed into a bag and feed this for the 7 days - there is not a set dose per day, just your usual daily feed ration, so if you know roughly what that is you can work out how many 2kg batches you need to last 7 days

OMG thanks, thats much easier to understand.

And don't forget the second most important thing, only feed them with the feed, NO treats, No free ranging, they need to only take the pellet for the 7 day period.
 
In the Fulbenvet box there is normaly a little 6g scoop to make it easy to measure.

i cooked up some pasta and gave them each four pieces Put some cod liver oil on the pasta and  a pinch of powder. MADE SURE EACH ONE ONLY ATE THEIR OWN FOR SEVEN DAYS. worked a treat.

I worm regularly (3 months). I got 2 new hens a few weeks ago and noticed worms in their poo so am currently worming using fluebevent.
The question I have is if there was worms in their poo, eggs could go into the soil etc in their run. Is there something I can spray on the ground that can be effective in killing also?
I use Jeyes fluid and poultry shield when cleaning them out.

mine are on a soil base run and everytime I worm them I remove the top layer and replace with new after the severn days so as to make sure I stop the cycle.

I add the Flubenvet to their mash for 7 days in March and September. Quick and easy.
