Hello Guys,
Did any one use "Vita King 5 in 1". I am looking for some thing to treat rollers for worm?
Thank you, -Rauf

Hi Rauf,
There are 3 cheap good effective choices.
They can be purchased at a feed store or agri store.
Ivomectin a sheep drench.
Wazine a pig or chicken wormer.
And Peperzine a poultry wormer.
All can be given at a rate of 1 teaspoon to a gallon of water.
I have used all 3 and I prefer Wazine.

Thanks Steve for the feedback. I will try to find them. Wondering how many times a year you worm the birds.

Sid to be honest with you I'm not a big fan of the 5-1 4-1 ones what have you,for worms I treat with wormers,for canker I treat with canker products. ect,for worming I use "Ivomec injectable" for cattle by dropping a couple of drops down the throat,worms aren't a big problem here due to the dry heat so I only worm every two or three years unless I suspect a problem, but can be a real problem in humid areas in which case I would hit them once a year

Rauf,
I worm my birds 2 times a year.
About a week in the late winter before mateing them up and once in the mid summer.
It changes seasons here in southern Ohio and we can get all types of dampness and humidity.

Thanks Steve and Scott. I am in high humidity and rainy area and it is probably good idea to dose them twice a year
Thank you, -Rauf
