Internal parasites can cause serious health issues in poultry if not treated regularly. Laying Hen Wormout solution has been formulated to provide a simple in-water treatment for intestinal parasites in laying hens with no withholding period on eggs.

Laying Hen Wormout Solution provides simultaneous treatment of the sensitive strains of the three most important intestinal worms in laying hens: large roundworm (Ascaridia galli), caecal worm (Heterakis gallinae), and hairworm (Capillaria spp.).

Worms are typically transmitted from bird to bird through the fecal-oral route. This is where worm eggs are excreted in droppings and then ingested by birds that scratch and peck at the soil, litter, or droppings. Ingestion of infected earthworms, slugs and other secondary hosts can also spread parasitic worms.

The most common intestinal worms that infect laying hens include large roundworm, caecal worm and hairworm. Roundworms, are the largest worms affecting poultry. These worms can cause intestinal impaction and fatalities in severe cases. Hairworms are small, thread-like, and barely visible to the naked eye, even small burdens can be pathogenic and can be fatal quite quickly. Caecal worms are short and white with a pointed tail, their eggs may remain viable for months in the environment.

Signs of worm infection may include reduced appetite, weight loss, pale combs due to anaemia and intermittent diarrhoea. Egg production may drop, with smaller eggs, pale yolks and fragile shells. In severe cases, worms can cause impactions or blockages, damage the intestinal wall of poultry and may even interfere with the chicken’s ability to absorb nutrients.

Regular treatment (once every 3 months) provides parasite control to assist in the prevention of potential health problems associated with parasite infestation.

Vetafarm Laying Hen Wormout Solution provides simultaneous treatment of the sensitive strains of the three most important intestinal worms in laying hens: large roundworm (Ascaridia galli), caecal worm (Heterakis gallinae), and hairworm (Capillaria spp.).

Laying Hen Wormout Solution has no withholding period on eggs, meaning eggs are safe for consumption after treating hens.

Restraints: DO NOT USE less than 7 days before slaughter for human consumption.

Dosage and Administration:
 Do not treat in extremely hot weather due to increased water consumption.
Dilute Laying Hen Wormout Solution with drinking water at a rate of 50mL solution per L of water.
Repeat treatment once every three months (4 times per year).
For maximum efficiency against worms, the medicated drinking water must be consumed in the shortest possible time. Water should be withheld from the birds 2 hours before nightfall. Medicated water should be supplied the following morning. Replace the medicated water with fresh water as soon as it is all consumed or after 8 hours. Medicated water remaining at the end of the treatment period is to be discarded and containers flushed out with fresh water.

DIRECTIONS:

Please note: The below directions are a guide only. If babies' crops are emptying faster than normal, add slightly more Nutricore formula to your mix. If babies' crops are emptying slowly, slightly more water can be added for a thinner consistency.

IMPORTANT NOTES
Always ensure food is fed to babies at a temperature of between 38-41°C.
Never reuse a premixed batch of formula from a previous feed. Mix Nutricore fresh every feed.
Always ensure feeding utensils are thoroughly cleaned and sterilised between feeds.
Always weigh your babies at the beginning of each day before their first feed to ensure they are gaining weight. 
Always mix well to achieve a uniform consistency, cool to feeding temperature (38-41°C) and feed fresh to babies.

NEONATE FEEDING RECOMMENDATION (HATCHING TO DAY 5) 
Feed a combination of Spark Liquid and Synbiotic solution only, for the first 24 hours or until your baby passes the meconium (first dropping). After the first dropping, mix 1 heaped teaspoon of Nutricore with 5 teaspoons of hot, pre-boiled water to make a very thin solution, then feed this solution for the next 24 hours. This solution can be gradually thickened over the following 3 days until the Standard feeding dilution is achieved as outlined below.

STANDARD FEEDING RECOMMENDATION (BABIES OVER 5 DAYS) 
Mix 1 heaped teaspoon of Nutricore Hand Rearing Formula with 3 teaspoons of hot, pre-boiled water. This consistency will be used from day 5 through to when the bird weans onto an adult diet.

TRANSITION FEEDING  
A Nutricore mix of very thin consistency should be fed to babies for at least the first 24 hours when transitioning from another brand of formula or when pulling babies older than 5 days from the nest for hand raising. This is to ensure babies remain hydrated and allows a period for adjustment to the new diet. The recommendation for this transition period is 1 heaped teaspoon of Nutricore with 5 teaspoons of hot, pre-boiled water. 

Vetafarm Ectotherm Shedding Mist has been designed to aid snakes and lizards during the natural process of shedding. With a unique blend of cosmeceuticals, Shedding Mist hydrates and softens old skin easing the shedding process, while conditioning the new skin to leave it with a healthy shine.

Snakes and lizards will periodically shed their skin; this is commonly referred to as sloughing. As juveniles they shed more frequently and this process becomes less frequent as they age. Snakes tend to shed in one complete piece while lizards tend to shed in patches. 

Shedding Mist is non-toxic and completely safe for reptiles, their water and handling.

Directions for use:
Shake well before use.
Lightly spray your reptile with Shedding Mist once daily while shedding.

*Poor nutrition may negatively impact the sloughing process. If your reptile experiences ongoing shedding issues, consult your veterinarian for advice.
