    Yeh I know that :) I just wanted to know why people are so against it when vets recommend it that's all.. That's what I said everyone should so their own research, and I was trusting my vet/ local poultry.. Thankyou for the information anyways :)

    Yeh everyone has their own opinions on it.. My best friend is a fully qualified vet, and there is no way her or the practice would recommend it In that small dose if it was unsafe.. I have no problem telling people it worked for me, as it's the ONLY thing that got rid of mites... It's safe for...

    Poultry and vets say it's nil.. There is no holding time as you don't apply enough to effect the eggs.. 1-2 drops won't effect eggs... It's different for meat as it's applied to the skin.. I ate my eggs day after applications and there is nothing wrong with the eggs....

    I have used it for 6 months as advised by my vet and local chicken produce.. If you want something that's going to work it will have chemicals.. It can be dangerous if you don't apply the right amount for the right animal.. I had no problems with eating eggs right away after application... It...

    http://www.worldwidepetsupplies.com.au/advocate-cat/ This is the one you need to buy :) Remember when u apply it spread the feathers and apply 1-2 drops behind the neck of the chickens directly on the skin!! 2 drops for adult chickens! 12-24 hours to start working :)

    Yeh it's still hard going outside and them not running up to me.. But it's the best thing for them! They have only been gone for 2 days so it will take a while to get back to normal.. Thankfully I can be updated all the time..

    I only had the 6.. So no I don't have any at all :( Unfortunately where I live my neighbors have unsafe dogs and I didn't want to risk their lives as they were always escaping.. And other circumstances also.. I felt it was the best thing for the chickens to go to a friends property to be well...

    I will pass on that information.. I really don't want to give them away but unfortunately like I said I will eventually move out of home and my mum won't be able to look after them like I do.. And I thought the sooner for them the better... They already fight with each other as it is, and that's...

    So my white leghorn has been getting very dirty lately and I'm wanting to give her a bath.. It's been raining a bit here lately so she is abit muddy.. Doesn't seem to shake off... Any suggestions on how to bathe a chicken???? I've heard salt water is good, and I've also heard vinegar is good...

    I have actually had one of my eggs tested for advocate at my vets and it's completely clear, no trace of advocate in the eggs.. Also I have purchased this product from this website before and it's completely legit :) I do agree some websites are faulty and people should be aware..
