What age shall I worm the chicks?
« on: January 18, 2010, 09:56 »
The chicks are about 3-4 days old, I was given them by the neighbours cousin (21 or 22, they are difficult to count!)  What age should I administer flubenvet in their food?
Thanks

I'd personally only worm them once they had access to the outside world where they could come into contact with worms... you could maybe use vermx or similar supplements in their food or water once they are outside which will prevent worms...  ::)
