Hi,
Sorry, I,m sure this information is somewhere on your pages but how much of the new 60g tub fluvenvet should I use per chicken if I'm not actually putting it in their feed?
I would rather put it in a treat like a grape or mine love natural yoghurt and it all gets eaten every day so for 4 chickens what amount would you put in?
Thanks. x

We have this information

I'll do some sums and work out how much per day

OK...

The 240g tub is 2.5% flubendazole
The 60g tub is 1.0% flubendazole

The correct dose rate for a medium sized chicken of the 2.5% formulation was 0.12g per day.

I follows therefore that the dose rate for the 1% formulation would be 0.12 x 2.5 = 0.3g per day = 2.1g total for the 7 day treatment.

The scoop enclosed in the pack measures out approx. 6 grams and would therefore be enough to treat 3 hens for 7 days.

Divide that up as you find easiest
