Can this product be used on birds?
Yes. Please make sure you know the weight of your bird and dose accordingly.
Can my animal consume the product without water?
Yes. We recommend adding the water so that it can be consumed throughout the day, but if you would like to dose neat, you may do so. The dose rate still remains the same as it is based on weight, not dilution.
What can I add if my chickens are not consuming the water with the Kilverm?
We recommend adding a little bit of honey to the water to create greater palatability.
Can I consume the eggs if my Hen has just consumed Kilverm?
Yes
How often should I worm my chickens?
If you know there is a worming problem then we would recommend administering once, then again after 2 weeks. If itβs as a preventative method, then once every 6 months.
