What is the difference btw Valbazen wormer and drentch kit?

[Kuntry Klucker]

That is pretty much it. I am looking to order Valbazen online since I cannot find
it in stores in my area. I see valbanen wormer and dretch. I am wondering what the
difference is.

Thanks in Advance.

"Drench" just means it's formulated to be given orally.

Just read the labels to see it there's a difference in the strength.
There probably won't be though
All that really matters is the percentage of active ingredient

Sarfeguard 10% liquid will also do pretty much the same thing as Vabazen, and is a little cheaper

Ok, Thanks, I have to order it online so is it better to order the drentch version rather than the
regular?

Thanks.

Can you post a link to exactly what it is you're looking at so I can see the difference?

I don't know how to post links, I'm not very computer literate. I can say that one bottle is sold as a drentch kit and the other
is sold as a 500ml bottle of valbazen not a drentch kit. The one sold as a drentch kit has come kind of a sprayer or something with it.
Not even too sure how that would even be used.

Thanks Again.

OK
The 500 ML bottle is WAY more than you need unless you have a couple of hundred birds.

The "drench kit" is including a "drenching gun" which is a fancy name for a pump that measures each dose, and has a tip on it to make it easy to insert in the animals mouth

I think you'd be better off to get a 125 ML bottle of Safeguard and use a normal syringe without a needle to measure and dose the birds

This is the drench gun, but unless you have large animals it's not needed:

Thank you so much, I will do that. The drentch gun is kind of big for a chicken. Thank you so much for answering my question.
This is my first time worming so as you can tell I am a little lost.

I will go with the safeguard.

Thanks again so much.

Hey Bear Foot Farm,
I had one more question. How much do I give each chicken? I was just wondering, I was not sure if the measurments would be for
goats only or other live stock.

Thanks Again for all you help.
