![Nettex Poultry Wound Spray]()
Poultry Wound Spray 250ml | Nettex
Antiseptic spray for wounds on poultry. Nettex Wound Spray is an easy-to-apply aerosol to treat wounds on chickens. Many poultry wounds are caused by a peck, a spur, a claw, or something else dirty, germs can often get deep into the wounds. A highly effective cleanser with a powerful bactericidal action. Treats superficial wounds and abrasions and it works quickly to kill bacteria to stop the threat of infection. A must-have in any poultry first-aid kit! Antibacterial – providing effective protection from the risk of bacterial infection. Leaves a violet coloured residue when applied to indicate that the affected area has been covered and to disguise the appearance of blood, to help prevent pecking or bullying. An essential tool for minor wound management. Aerosol spray for precise and easy application. HOW TO USE Separate injured bird from others to avoid potential cannibalism. Clean wound and spray area from about 15cm (6”). Repeat daily or as necessary. Do not use on large open wounds that may require stitching or hydrogel bandaging. We recommend using gloves during application as any purple spray will also stain your skin. At Appletons we like having wound spray on hand to treat any wounds or assist with feather-pecking. The violet colouring masks the colour of blood and the spray does an excellent job of healing the wound fast.

![Coxiprol Solution 1Lt]()
Coxiprol Solution
Coxiprol is essential to have handy when raising young birds. Coccidiosis is an intestinal parasite that exists just about everywhere. It can take a heavy toll on chicks, starting from about three weeks of age. The parasite multiplies greatly in the gut of the chick, and vast numbers of "oocysts" (think of them as eggs) come out in the manure. Chicks raised on litter floors scratch and peck at the litter, looking for food, and become infected. The explosive multiplication of the coccidia can lead to dead, stunted, and sick chicks. Chicks that are exposed to only low levels of coccidia become immune without becoming sick. Control is achieved by breaking the reproductive cycle. Chicks raised on wire floors don't get coccidiosis because they don't have enough contact with the manure. Chicks raised on free-range from a very early age tend not to get it because they also don't have enough exposure. Chicks raised on old litter (used for at least six months) tend not to get it because the litter eventually harbours microscopic creatures that eat coccidia. Medicated chick starter contains drugs that suppress coccidia directly. Wet litter, crowding, intermittent feeding, and any type of stress tend to increase coccidiosis. If the feeders are empty, the chicks will spend more time nosing around in the litter. If you have an outbreak of coccidiosis, - the first signs are usually visible as ‘bloody’ poop. A must-have if hatching and raising your own chicks!Treating CoccidiosisAnticoccidial drugs are very effective. The danger zone is usually around 3 to 7 weeks. Keep chicks on a crumble that contains low levels of coccidiostat. With a serious outbreak, you need to put a coccidiostat in the water, since sick chicks that will not eat will still drink. It is worth having an anticoccidial drug-like Coxiprol on hand as if caught earlier enough and treated the chicks bounce back quickly. Available in a 250ml and a 1L bottle.

Fenugreek Trigonella foenum-graecumFenugreek is an annual plant that is grown mainly in India, Pakistan, and China. Fernugreek seeds possess many beneficial effects such as hypoglycemic, anti-helminthic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-microbial properties. Nutritional-wise, fenugreek is a rich source of protein, fatty acids, and minerals such as phosphorus, iron, zinc, magnesium, and calcium. It also contains many flavonoids, polysaccharides, saponins, and alkaloids (trigonelline and choline). Specific applications studied in poultry include: Antidiabetic: Fenugreek contains an amino acid called 4-hydroxy isoleucine, which works to normalize glucose metabolism by increasing the body's production of insulin when blood sugar levels are high. Anti-stress: A research study conducted on broilers showed that their body weight increased significantly and had improved feed conversion ratios when they were provided higher amounts of fenugreek seed powder in their diet (10 to 40 g/kg). Kelp boosts the immune system and increases energy.Fenugreek is an excellent anti-stress remedy. Bladderwrack or Kelp is high in antioxidants, including carotenoids and flavonoids, which help fight against disease-causing free radicals. Antioxidant minerals, such as manganese and zinc, help combat oxidative stress and may help protect cardiovascular health and prevent cancer. By adding sea kelp to your flock's diet, you have the opportunity to improve their nutrition, boost their immune response and promote egg laying. In the diet of chickens kelp can improve immunity, antioxidant capacity and performance. Siberian Ginseng is a popular herbal plant widely used for its variety of effects in both traditional and research-based medicines. It benefits are anti-fatigue, anti-oxidant, hepatoprotective, anti-tumour and anti-inflammatory.

![Brinsea EcoGlow Safety 600 Chick Brooder | Heat Plate]()
Brinsea EcoGlow Safety 600 Chick Brooder | Heat Plate
Keeps chicks warm. Safe and easy to use. A brilliant little brooder. The NEW Brinsea EcoGlow Safety 600 Chick Brooder is an efficient and safe way of keeping newly hatched poultry, game and waterfowl warm. Suitable for max ± 15-20 day old chicks. The EcoGlow Safety 600 is ideal for keeping newly hatched poultry, game and waterfowl warm for the crucial first days and weeks following. The low voltage heater panel warms the chicks directly by contact. The radiant heat is far more economical than a conventional infrared lamp, using about 5% of the electricity of a 250 watt suspended lamp, which is important when heating for 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Contact with the EcoGlow Safety 600 is a more natural way of raising chicks than a heat lamp. It avoids the stress of being under light both day and night and the chicks get used to the natural light changes of night and day which improves weight gain and feather growth. The metal heater plate of the EcoGlow Safety 600 improves heat radiation and evenness of temperature under the brooder as metal is a much better conductor of heat. The lower contact temperature and the easy height adjustment means that chicks can be 'contact brooded' (like the mother hen) for maximum comfort and the lowest wasted energy. The flared 'skirt' around the heater retains more heat, improving efficiency and reducing energy use. The EcoGlow Safety 600 has easy height adjustment for a wide range of chick sizes and its tough plastic and metal construction makes it durable and easy to clean. Maximum power consumption: 12 watts (240v to 12v NZ mains adaptor is supplied) Water-tight (IPX7 Safety Standard) construction and low voltage operation are designed to comply with stringent electrical safety standards. Supplied with a 240v NZ mains adaptor incorporating a 3-metre lead, simply plug in and go - no extra accessories, plugs or cords required. FREE 3-year guarantee when registered online. Dimensions: 291mm x 208mm x 61mm (yellow panel only) Not including legs. PLEASE NOTE: This product is for indoor use only and the room temperature should not drop below 10° C (50° F). The EcoGlow should be located in an area free from draughts and chicks should be provided with plenty of bedding.
