Verm-X Pellets for Poultry (250g Tube)
Verm-X is a safe, natural, 100% herbal parasite repellent which has been proved to be a very effective alternative to pharmaceutical, chemical wormers.
Many livestock owners report that not only do their animals love the taste of Verm-X but, with regular use, their condition improves too – Verm-X doesn’t just kill the parasites – it’s actually good for your stock!
Verm-X for Poultry is now available in both liquid and pelleted forms, the pelleted form being more suited to birds which are free-range, where the drinking water could be diluted by natural rainfall.
Verm-X Liquid is easy to use by adding to your bird’s drinking water and disallowing any other
drinking water for the 3 days per month you add Verm-X. Verm-X Pellets are 2mm in diameter and mix well into regular manufactured feeds or home made feeds.
A further advantage of Verm-X over chemical based products is that, being 100% natural herbal formula there is no withdrawal period for either eggs or meat – Verm-X is perfectly safe!
