froglet feast

Bank Holiday and I'm gardening, like most of you! - and my Laydies were 'helping' - I'm fairly new to keeping them - we've had them about 2 months now..   and seeing them freerange at close quarters was wonderful but I was truly amazed at what they ate..blimey! Henavie tucked into a poor froglet that didn't quite hop it in time! down in one!!  :Pfollowed by a lovely huge wriggly worm..  :blink:I never thought she would get that down, but she did!   Laycey displayed a fondness for snails - shell aswell,  :wacko:followed by a nice pupae and Cazpee, well she seems to prefer bugs....    and I had thought, watching them from kitchen sink duties  that they were only pecking at the grass and perhaps enjoyed the odd ant!   We did find a rather large frog who had decided that if he kept really, really still, he may just survive... they looked at it with one beady eye, then  with a quick turn of the head, spyed it with the other eye..  decided it was too big to eat, so just walked over it instead....   gardening has never been so much fun!
however... there is a serious question in here...   this all seems a good natural diet to me.. but can anyone see any problems with them eating whatever they find?   

yes, I've heard I need to worm them...  I know that they arrived 'ready wormed' but I think it needs doing every 6 months? 
I'll seach the site - I think just about every topic is covered on here somewhere.......

Verm-x doesn't work on all types of worms so really you should use something like flubenvet which does. If your girls are free ranging they are more susceptible to worms so perhaps worming them every 4 months might be better.

I'd agree with the flubenvet, but found that due to different birds having different appetites some weren't getting the full dose when it was added to their feed so I checked on the site here and followed the advice of giving a pinch of it to each bird individually on 1/2 a grape a day for a week - worked a treat & that way I had peace of mind they all got wormed.

Is flubenvet available over the counter or will I have to get a note from the vet?

AAARGGHH  not a nice thought! but, its only exactly the same as any bird of prey would do...  it's just breakfast..or supper! 

Anyway - a quick search and flubenvet is easily available on internet sites and costs about £14.00 

Thanks for the advice on dosing each of the laydies with powder on a grape or suchlike.. great idea and at least you know that they have all been treated.

I've just bought some flubenvet from   animalmedicines.co.uk   for £14.00 for 60g with free delivery.
