Worming the flock

I worm the flock twice a year in March and September. I am a bit late this time. I have been waiting for Sugar to get through her broody spell before starting as she eats very little when broody. She came through it a few days ago and I started worming yesterday.

I use flubenvet mixed in dishes of mash for seven consecutive days. This has always worked well for me and makes it easy for each girl to get a share.

By the end of the day the dishes are always empty. So far I haven’t found any worms but it’s always best to be on the safe side. It’s also a good chance to get a couple of group photos.
