I use flubenvet to worm my chickens and do it two or three times a year  :)
Staffies are softer than you think.

Jamima,

I also use Flubenvet, twice a year and give it to my girls on grapes as it's much easier. We weren't too sure how to measure it, but put the end of a teaspoon handle into the powder and gathered a tiny pinch onto that before dropping it onto the half grape. We cut them up as the powder stuck to the inside of the grape better. At least that way we knew they had all had the same amount. To make sure the greedy ones didn't get their fair share, we go into the run, pick one up, quickly offer the grape before losing fingers and then pop her outside etc. Hope this helps you  :)
