willy 546,

It has been quite the discussion thread since you posted that you had success with Zyfend

A and I responded with a thank you for purchasing and using the product!

It is unfortunate that the whole experience looks to have created doubt in your mind. And rest assured, the information we share is based on our experience in successfully managing the health, productivity, salmonella control program and internal parasite program in over 15 million laying hens every day. With all natural products.

I am hoping that my posts have helped and that you plan on continuing to use the product according to label directions (6 drops per every gallon for 1 week out of every month that worms can infest the birds). This is due to the fact that the worm life cycle (depending on species) is every 28-40 days.

That is the program that the certified organic and natural flocks that are using the product (over 5 million birds) are currently using with success.

We pride ourselves on our customer service and spend a lot of time on the phone with backyard poultry raisers like yourself. If we can help in any way and if it would be valuable to get on the phone to answer any other questions for you, just give me a call.

Thank you again for purchasing our product and sharing your positive experience.

Best regards,

David

While here, I'm still confused about the OXY E-100 vs Oxine vs Anthium Dioxcide®... I had someone look at it this thread and they seem to think that one could get the same results from using the proper amount of Oxine, which would be much less money per gallon.

And I'm curious... are these 15 million birds being treat with the health pack? That many chickens drink ~9,750,000 gallons of water a day... seems like a lot of product.
