Oregano oil is there a type?

[Sheryl-02]

I have read that oregano oil is good for chickens but is there a specific type i need to give or can i choose any oregano oil and it will be okay ??

Not sure, but I think you are asking about what is referred to as Oil of Oregano.
I have used it for personal use, It is medicine/herb grade type of thing. Comes in small containers, and is expensive.
What is your reason for needing for your chickens.???
BTW,,,,,, that product is a natural antibiotic, but has limited strength, compared to things like penicillin. Has been in use since ancient times, according to things I read about it.

There is one made for livestock & chickens to be put in their water. It's quite pricey, but some commercial outfits actually use it for chickens.

I used it for awhile with young chickens when I didn't feed medicated feed. YMMV

Ropa Oregano Oil is actually a foreign product, but I don't remember from which country. Maybe Google RopaPharm or Ropa Intl to see if it's available. I think some people use just oregano oil like you show, but it will not mix with water consistantly like the formula from ROPA. Maybe someone else will chime in.

I wonder how effective just giving them the herbs is over the oil. Of course, the oil would be stronger no doubt. But I wonder what is more cost effective. Guess that depends on how well it grows in your garden.

i was thinking the same but for ascites it said that the oil would be better
it never mentioned the herb
i guess i will try both if i have to..
