Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Ribh]

@Scrambles83 Was it you I promised wormer information?
This is what the Vet has given me this time. I like she's mixing the medications up. Less chance of my girls becoming resistant again.

It's Ivomec & all I have to do is syringe the dose onto the back of the neck like you'd treat a cat for fleas. There is no witholding period on the eggs.

View attachment 2626992I hate to write this Ribh but I don't think that is going to do the job. I have read here on BYC and other places that Ivermectin is not an effective treatment for worms. It is still good for mites and lice.

Where can i get the new hamisphire or Rhode island roosters?

OK. Thanks, @Shad. I'll dose & see how we go. I've got a few tablets left so will use those on the girls I know have a bad infestation & watch the others. If it doesn't work I will speak to the Vet & get something else as the produce stores round here only carry the Kilverm, which I know isn't working.

Sheriffs office said the bread was laced with ethylene glycol. Who would want to hurt innocent lives!

Alex, this is extremely disturbing. It’s downright alarming. What are you going to do about it? I can’t imagine your horror.

Here in Europe and in the UK the only wormers that are still recommended and considered effective are the abendazole group.

She’s gorgeous. Really cute pose too.

I though so too, glad I had my phone on me!

I didn't get to choose... but I will keep a close eye on their poop. The sick girls did get a dose of Kilverm but they haven't been here long enough to build up immunity & Ceres had both thread & tape worms in her poop so I needed to treat quickly as she was already sick with the pox. I haven't seen any more & her poops are finally looking pretty good.

Absolutely my dear, it's the fashion of today. Maybe I could fix your hair for you one day, free of charge .

What, like this?
