best product for worms

just want to find out what do you think is the best to give your birds ?
because today i had my birds injected for PMV and my friend who did is also a top
eye sign man he looked at some of my so called better birds and he thinks they need worming just by
looking at there eyes , they haven,t been wormed yet in the next few days they will be they got wormed twice
last season but what do you use , i use ascaplia tablets .

high kev funny your asking , i was talking about this the other day with rod adams and he was telling me there is only one product that actually kills the eggs aswell and thats easifen you can get this through hyperdrug but dont use when on youngbirds or racing as it affects the moult the other product is moxidectin this does not kill the eggs though so a burn out after treatment or a spray out with verkon s will do the job hope this helps mate

he did tell me what he used but i can,t remember what name it is
but its only available from a vet my mate said he could not believe what came out of his
birds when he used it , he says there pupils are to big they should be smaller but should be ok with being
wormed .

Thats interesting I have my own therory about large pupils, never heared of that with eyesign before, I will be worming my birds before racing so will checkout the eyes before and after.

Kev d, like eyesign myself, and there is somethin in what you say when louella lofts had shows entered a eyesign show 3 hens, showed a van den bosch hen which i had the friday from ireland as i showed her the sunday

Bill Carney was the judge and when he saw her he commented on her and said she had cocci and respitery just by looking at the eye

So your freind Ken d may be right ( I wounder who he is)

have heard them say you can tell the birds health by looking at the eye, but dont know how..................

I don't know how they do it mate

is it something to do with the cere.....? or the muscle surrounding the eye.....?

sorry david , i will sit on the naughty step

mmmmmmmmmmm interesting, would love to know what he saw??

for me i thought worms were an infection of the intestines, so what that does to the eye, interested..

welcome to the site lightning hope you enjoy lol

lol........ love it

hi mark , what he was saying to me was the pupil was to big but when there are free of worms the
pupil will get smaller and the whole eye will become crystal clear , don,t ask me how he knows i haven,t got a clue
but he knows what he,s talking about . cheers kev

i can understand possible upper respiratory being indicated by the eye, but worms..........

Kev, can you ask Alan what he saw, as i havnt wormed for a couple of years and to be honest always watched their appetite and droppings only for signs??

hi mark , my birds dropping are firm and round like they should be with a white cap on top , they got wormed twice last season and are getting wormed this week they look perfect in every way so i was suprised when he said that but he tells the truth in what he see but over all he was impressed with the condition of my birds
is it a load of bull or is there some thing in what he say,s ???

dont know mate, he obviously knows what hes looking at.......something we will never know lol

but please look at their eyes now....and after worming and let us know
