My mom and I were just talking, she wants to use something else too now since I shared with her the info you gave about the Zyfend. Thinking it's a 3 person job, will have to do it at night, one to hold the bird, one to administer the med and one to hold a flashlight?

Headlight.......one of the best tools I ever bought.

I have mixed the wormer in water and then used the water to wet a one day ration of feed.

But I am not sure how well that worked.......

This is how some of my peafowl buddies do it. Seems to work if they all eat enough.

With Valbazen I just put it on a little bit of bread. My birds are trained to take bread out of my hand, and so I hand feed it to them individually.

My hens would mob me if I tried the bread trick!

Mine LOVE bread! And I use it to lure them into the coop when I need them in, so that should work perfectly

Although, I might have trouble keeping them straight, which one had one already ;P How do y'all keep track of that?

I'm curious if anyone else has an opinion on Durvets Strike III wormer feed....thoughts?

 

[MesMama]

There are so many to choose from, how do you guys pick?

 

[MesMama]

I don't want to reinvent the wheel here lol! Just pick something effective and relatively simple to administer since I am a chicken newbie AND they don't like to be touched ;P
