Jay Argh 6 Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Think you'd be better off using something like flubenvet for gapes. Have used Panacur for worms, but I think it only treats intestinal worms, whereas gapes is in the throat/windpipe area. ATB J Quote Link to post

Yes panacur is Fenbendazole , you can buy 1 ltr of panacur for cattle , sheep and horse for about £55-£60 . But the exact same medicine bottled for dogs costs about £20 for 100ml, that is some mark up !!!!! Panacur can be used for game birds but Flubenvet is better !! Quote Link to post

Linton Lad 90 Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Get the Panacur 10% dog wormer. The sheep and cattle stuff has selenium and cobalt in it. 5ml per 100 birds in enough water for 3 days. Works for me. Quote Link to post
