Full details
Flubenvet 1% Medicated Premixture is an essential tool for domestic poultry keepers, including those raising chickens, turkeys, and geese, to effectively manage internal parasite burdens. It offers the distinct advantage of being safe for egg-laying birds, allowing you to consume eggs during the treatment period without withdrawal restrictions. However, success depends on diligent mixing to ensure every bird consumes the correct dosage, as the treatment is delivered through daily feed over a continuous seven-day course.

FAQs
Can I eat the eggs while using Flubenvet?
Yes, Flubenvet has no egg withdrawal period, making it safe to consume eggs during and immediately after the seven-day treatment.
How long should I treat my birds?
The treatment must be administered consistently over a seven-day period to be effective.
Is this product safe for chicks?
Flubenvet is designed for domestic poultry; however, always follow the label instructions regarding age and weight for young birds.
Does it kill worm eggs in the environment?
While it treats the worms within the bird, moving birds to fresh ground is necessary to reduce environmental contamination and prevent immediate re-infection.
What if a bird does not eat the medicated feed?
The treatment is only effective if the bird ingests the medicated feed; observe your flock to ensure all birds are eating their fair share.
How should I store the 60g tub?
Keep the tub in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to maintain the efficacy of the medication.
Troubleshooting
Birds are refusing the medicated feed
Mix the premixture with a small amount of favorite treat or high-palatability feed, or reduce other scraps to ensure they eat the required ration.
Difficulty achieving a uniform mix
Mix the required amount of Flubenvet into a small portion of feed first, then gradually incorporate that 'pre-mix' into the larger batch to ensure even distribution.
Unsure about dosage for non-chicken species
Refer to the specific species guidelines on the product packaging, as dosages vary by weight and feed intake requirements for turkeys and geese.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Preparation involves calculating the volume of feed your birds consume daily to ensure you mix only what is needed for the seven-day period. Use the provided 6g scoop for precise measurement. Store the container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the potency of the active ingredients. Ensure that medicated feed is kept dry and replaced if it becomes wet or moldy. If you are mixing this for different species, consult the specific ratio requirements for turkeys and geese, as they may differ from those of chickens.
