Nicky, I gave mine some rinsed tined sweetcorn and stired the flubenvet into that - as they all love sweetcorn they didn't notice any difference and the bigger ones being greedy had more than the babies  :D. Worked for me and the chucks got sweetcorn every day for 7 days.

I just mixed it in with the pellets, if you add the correct dose to just a handful of pellets and mix it, then add more pellets and mix it again, carry on until you've got the correct amount of food for the dose of flubevent, by doing it this way it is evenly distributed throughout the food, hope that helps

If you mix the powder into a smaller amount of pellets first then mix that into the total amount then that is easier I have found. Flubenvet is so easy, just follow the instructions. Nic.

I use a little olive oil to stick it to my pellets or I give each of the girls a piece of bread with a sprinkle on.

I do the same as Purplebat and nicchick. It sticks well enough to the pellets due it being such a fine powder.
