  • Nettex Poultry Wound Spray 250ml Wound Care Spray for Poultry Nettex

    Poultry Wound Spray 250ml | Nettex

    7 reviews

    Antiseptic spray for wounds on poultry. BB 04/2028 Nettex Would Spray is an antiseptic aerosol spray designed for easy application to wounds on pets and poultry. Many poultry wounds are caused by pecks, spurs, or claws, which can introduce germs. Nettex Wound Spray is a highly effective cleanser with powerful antibacterial action, specifically formulated to treat superficial wounds and abrasions on chickens. It works quickly to kill bacteria and prevent infection. It can also be used to treat problems like bumblefoot in chickens or issues caused by pecking. 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 the 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.

  • Bantam Step On Feeder | Appletons Appletons Bantam Step On Feeder

    Bantam Step On Feeder | Appletons

    13 reviews

    Best automatic bantam step on feeder. Perfect auto feeder for all small poultry breeds: Bantams, Hamburghs, Campines, Lavender Araucanas and pheasant We have been so impressed with these Bantam Step On Feeders for feeding our smaller ladies. 😊 The Pekin Bantams took to them quickly (little birds with high IQ's!) and now 16 years on they are still the perfect auto feeder for our smaller breeds. We are saving on feed as the sparrows just don't get the opportunity to help themselves any longer. PLUS we have been using them in our pheasant flights and they have been working well with the ringnecks, ornamental pheasants and our smaller ornamental ducks.  Benefits: Perfect for 3 to 6 bantam-sized chickens: this feeder will need to be topped up more regularly if you keep a larger number of hens.  Suitable for all smaller sized fowl (Bantams, Hamburghs, Campines, Lavender Araucanas and pheasant) This brilliant step-on auto bantam feeder holds approximately 4kg. Hens are foragers and do best eating little and often throughout the day so feed on demand works best. Reduces hierarchy in flocks ensuring all birds get enough feed which results in happy hens and better egg production.  Vermin-proof: Keeps out rats, mice and sparrows ensuring your poultry feed is not contaminated. Keeps feed clean and helps to reduce the worm burden. Ideal for busy people that are not always home early in the morning and late afternoon to feed their hens and those of us that go away for weekends. Reduces feed wastage and saves money. Open feeders can lose up to 40% of feed to sparrows and other birds. NZ made - supporting local NZ business The unit is made from aluminium with alloy rivets, plated steel hinges, nuts and bolts so it keeps working in adverse weather. Includes our very own Appletons training instructions which are clear and easy to follow. Training is very important and not to be rushed or shortened. Chickens need to be POL and older for training. Dimensions: Overall size of feeding unit is 390mm (width) x 160mm (height) x 320mm (depth).

    Peck Toy Treat Dispenser | Omlet

    21 reviews

    Happy hens are busy hens! Omlet’s Pendant and Poppy Peck Toys are the great interactive feed toys your chickens have been waiting for. They combine fun, enriching entertainment with a tasty and rewarding flow of treats. Simple to install in any chicken coop or chicken run. The Peck Toy can be filled with corn, chicken feed, mixed grit or any other combination of your flock's favourite hard treats. Once filled it is guaranteed to become the centre of attention! Cleverly designed to provide a slow release of treats, the Peck Toy will maintain your hen's interest and keep them coming back for more tasty fun with their favourite chicken toy, time and time again. Slow Feed ReleaseThanks to its carefully designed treat dispenser the Peck Toy releases its contents slowly over a period of time when pecked at by playful hens. This means it not only provides an engaging and lasting challenge for your flock but it is also an ideal way to make your chicken treats last longer. The slow release nature of the Peck Toy also helps to guard against a dominant few hens having all the fun and gives the whole flock a chance to get stuck in. Boredom Busting FunNot only will your hens have a lot of fun playing with the Peck Toy, it also encourages and provides a healthy outlet for natural chicken behaviours such as pecking and foraging. Unlike with traditional chicken feeders, the random scattering of treats that occurs when the toy is pecked ensures your chickens will have to work for their rewards and it presents them with an interesting challenge. Providing added enrichment and mental stimulation to your hens routine not only helps to keep boredom at bay but it is also proven to improve flock behaviour. "My girls absolutely love their peck toy, I started out using it just for treats but now I also use it for their feed because it's such a great activity for them. It's so fun watching them peck at it, they got the hang of it straight away and honestly I can't imagine using anything else now." Helen Two Legendary DesignsThe Peck Toy is available in two great designs - both hold the same amount of treats and are quick and easy to install - and each provide chickens with their own unique blend of challenge and intrigue. The dispenser for both versions of the toy measures approx 15cm x 8.5cm and holds approx 300g corn (0.52 liters). It has 27 holes of 4mm width spaced evenly around all sides. The Poppy Peck ToyChickens can’t help falling in love with the Poppy Peck Toy. It simply pushes into the ground at your chosen location before getting all shook up as the treat dispenser attached to the top of the flexible pole gets pecked at. The pole provides a varying amount of spring which flicks the treats randomly from the dispenser for your hens to forage and enjoy. With an assembled height of approximately 52cm, the Poppy Peck Toy is the king of hentertainment. "AMAZING! Keeps my chickens entertained! They love it! And it's very easy to use" Poppy The Pendant Peck ToyWith the Pendant Peck Toy, the suspended feed dispenser sways when pecked at resulting in a fun moving target for your chickens to hone in on. It comes complete with an adjustable string to allow it to be hung from your Eglu Run, your Poletree Chicken Perch or the roof of any kind of chicken run.Supplied with a 100cm length of string, the Pendant Peck Toy is the champion of chicken feeders. Easy Re-Fill DispenserThe dispenser can be simply unscrewed for refilling and cleaning. To refill, simply unscrew the dispenser from it’s attachment and use it to scoop up your chosen treats before reattaching. When cleaning the dispenser we recommend using a non-scratch sponge and washing up liquid in warm soapy water. The dispenser is also dishwasher safe.

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.

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.

    Roll-Away Laying Box | Nest-o-Matic

    17 reviews

    Rollaway nest boxes make going away for a few days easy! The Nest-o-Matic is a comfortable and sheltered place for your hens to lay eggs. Eggs roll out by themselves into a covered tray, preventing them from being destroyed by the hens, or dirtied. This system ensures that all of your eggs can be collected quickly, easily and without hassle!  Benefits: Discourage broodiness in hens, as there are no eggs to sit on, hens will be less likely to go clucky. The roll out laying nest is supplied with a soft nest pad which is made of antibacterial polyethene. The softness of the nest pad ensures a comfortable area for the hens to lay. As required, the pad simply lifts out to be washed, dried and returned to the nest for tomorrow's eggs - thus keeping the nest clean, tidy and hygienic, giving your hens the ultimate comfort and with absolutely no hay, straw or shavings to bother with will reduce time spent cleaning your coop. You will be collecting clean fresh eggs every day, no more soiled eggs to wash, especially during the wetter months. The nest pad slopes down towards the collecting tray. The sloping floor can be set at three different angles where the eggs will naturally roll into the collecting tray where up to 12 eggs will be held at once. The lid of the collecting tray hinges and gives you easy access to the eggs. The curtain on the laying nest ensures the hens can lay eggs in a dark and sheltered area, giving your hen the privacy some coops lack, which can cause hens to seek other places to lay. The sloping roof of the Nest-o-Matic prevents the poultry from sitting on the laying box thus keeping it tidy. Multiple Nest-o-Matics can be attached to each other with the supplied mounting kit. This way you can connect several Nest-O-Matics to each other depending on your flock size! The Nest-o-Matic is made of durable material. The plastic parts are made of UV resistant and high-quality ABS and the body is galvanised sheet metal with a minimum of 1 mm thick. The tray base and lid are made of tough, long-lasting ABS plastic. Note: The Nest-o-Matic laying nest is delivered unassembled as a flat pack kitset. Assembly is easy and will only take minutes to assemble. Assembled size: 49cm length x 33cm width x 42.5cm high.

  • Nettex Anti Feather-Pecking Spray 250ml Anti-Feather Pecking Spray Nettex

    Anti-Feather Pecking Spray 250ml | Nettex

    27 reviews

    Anti-feather pecking spray for poultry. BB April 2027 Nettex Anti-Feather Pecking Spray is a dual-purpose spray to help prevent pecking among chickens and cleanse minor wounds. Deterrent spray with a strong odour and foul taste to help discourage biting, plucking and cannibalism. Contains antibacterial agents that will help cleanse minor skin wounds and abrasions and support the healing process. Cannibalism and feather pecking are complex behavioural problems of chickens. Boredom can increase the incidence and can lead to minor wounds and infection. Symptoms include pecking at the feet, vent, head, wings and feather pulling. A must-have in the poultry first-aid kit! HOW TO USE Disposable gloves must be worn Shake well before use Spray for approximately 3-4 seconds around the pecked area Repeat every 3-5 days until pecking has stopped Cannibalism and feather pecking are complex behavioural problems found in both poultry and game birds worldwide. It can affect any birds in small backyard flocks through to the large commercial flocks. One day all is fine in the pen then the next time you look it has started. There are many reasons for it happening but some of the main reasons are overcrowding, boredom, stress, pecking order, poor quality feed and disease. If it happens in your flock you need to move fast and treat birds and if necessary remove wounded birds. Symptoms include pecking at the feet (usually very young chicks) and the vents, tails, wings and sometimes the head and necks of young and mature birds. It can also include feather pulling. Cannibalism and feather pecking may lead to wounding leaving the skin open to bacterial infection. In severe cases, this leads to the loss of blood and leads to general anaemia. If the feather pecking and cannibalism is not caught in time birds can be almost eaten alive and sometimes 'gutted' if the wounds start around the tail and vent. If you find it in your flock act quickly. Most of us that keep poultry will find this a very useful spray as feather-pecking can be a real problem at times in flocks.  Please note if feather pecking has been happening for a while in your flock the 'action of feather pecking' becomes a habit. Habits can be hard to break. Removing the pecker (the bird responsible and usually the bird showing no visible signs of feather loss) from the situation is often the best thing to do. Treat the affected birds in the flock and give them an opportunity to regrow their feathers - which can take a good 4 to 8 weeks. If your chickens have wounds from pecking please remove them and treat them with Nettex Wound Spray. Do not leave chickens with visible fresh wounds in your flock as it is too tempting for other chickens to peck them.

  • Brinsea EcoGlow Safety 600 Chick Brooder | Heat Plate Brinsea EcoGlow Safety 600 Chick Brooder | Heat Plate

    Brinsea EcoGlow Safety 600 Chick Brooder | Heat Plate

    16 reviews

    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.

    Plastic Hens Eggs | A Trio

    11 reviews

    3 white eggs. White plastic hens nest eggs. These are standard size weighted hens eggs. 63mm long x 44mm diameter. Weighing 36gm each. Pack of 3. Keep a trio in the nest box to encourage your hens where to lay.We recommending investing in some fake eggs. Very handy to have for a few reasons! We place them in the laying boxes when pullets are POL (point of lay) to encourage them to lay in the nest boxes. Hens will go and lay where there is usually an egg or two so having a pair of false eggs permanently in the nest box/es is a good idea. Collect the fresh eggs daily and leave the fake eggs as an indicator to your hens. Slipping some wooden eggs under a broody hen to keep her sitting is another reason to have a pair...and fake eggs are solid so cannot be pecked at...collect fresh eggs often to reduce the risk of hens eating eggs.
