The EE braggers thread!!!

I believe what i used was zimectrin gold, had ivermectin and praquantizel as well. The praquantizel was what killed the tapes, i believe. Pea size for that, as well. Either one is fairly cheap

Where do you get invermectin for chickens?

I picked mine up at my local Tractor Supply Company for around $14 for the Ivermectin which is the generic of Ivomec. I used the pour on and did 1/2 cc for LF at the base of their necks. Repeat in 10-14 days. Use your own judgement on dosage I read many different ones & decided to go with the 1/2 cc instead of the drops ( way to variable IMO due to kind of dropper you choose to use).

I do not use Ivermectin as a wormer I use it mostly for lice & mites. I worm with Valbazen & Safeguard (I alternate my wormers).

Got my first bantam EE egg last week! A beautiful shade of green! I am hoping my other bantam EE will lay blue!


(Silkie egg, Buff Orpington egg, and the EE egg on the end! The pic takes away the color a bit)

Our 2 EE babies have found new friends!! They are now big enough to hang out with the kiddos. all 4 of them sat there for about 30min watching Kung Fu Panda before one of the chicks had an accident & they went back in their pen. <33333333 My little brown one fell asleep twice!



Couldn't get my daughter to pay any attention to the camera....while my son made his squishy face smile

They don't sell Ivermectin for chickens. It is for cattle and horses.... they use it off label with chickens.

I just have to brag on my beautiful EE, Grace. She went through a very fast molt and without lights or peppers or anything, just started laying again last week and has laid, thus far, 5 in 7 days. It's winter! I love my EE!! (She's 16 months old now.) So stoked I'm doing a dance. It's almost criminal to enjoy chickens so much.

Ask at your feed store..... I couldn't ever find any pour on locally that I could afford. I finally stumbled on some without looking at a feed store an hour away, but they also help me order the feed I want and give me a discount so they get all the business I can give them.

You can use Sevin Dust or liquid for that. Might take longer. I have used the liquid but make sure you get it at the base of the feathers really well. Might have to reapply a couple time
