Title: Slugs
Post by: Prod on September 14, 2012, 15:27

I have had  a Granpa's Feeder for about 6mths.  The last few days I have found slugs inside which I have 'flicked' away  Will they cause any harm/effect??

Your chooks will soon polish them off, and with some gusto if my girls are anything to go by

Slugs can host worms which is why you need to deworm the chooks.
