danw 1,748 Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 hydrodox and denagard in water or just denagard in feed if they are out the pen not cheap but the hydrodox and denagard mix works in about 3 days if youve caught the problem quick Quote Link to post

I know what you mean about the weather mate poor little sods get hammered I keep mine on pellet all season think they do better with a bit of extra protein than if they went on to wheat Quote Link to post
East coast 2 Posted October 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 Okay. The vet gave me pulmodox, as was only thing he had to try and help, powder for water, and yeah this bloddy weather na helping, raining again today. What sort off price is the denegard? Quote Link to post

What sort off price is the denegard? pulmodox has the same active ingredient as hydrodoxx so you are on the right track I think I paid £ per litre of denegard not sure on that though as the invoice went to the boss and it goes in at 2ml per litre of water but they can put it in pellet which given the weather is probably the best bet not sure on the price per ton on that.
