    Super Sprout Mix | Topflite

    1 review

    Nature's super food for chickens and other birds. Supersize your bird’s nutritional intake with our renowned super sprout mix. Sprouts mix is an excellent way to boost amino acids and antioxidants and, very helpfully, there’s no special equipment required – simply add water, soak and wait for the goodness to arrive… Sprouted seeds are the bird equivalent of a superfood as, when a seed is soaked and begins to sprout, stored nutrients are unlocked and higher amounts of natural goodness becomes available. Super Sprout delivers this along with vitamins and minerals, making it ideally suited to medium and larger birds (cockatiels through to macaws and chickens too!).  Sprouted seeds boost available nutrients. New Zealand grown sunflower seeds. Suitable for medium and larger birds (cockatiels to macaws). Source of essential amino acids and antioxidants. No equipment needed (or phone booth for the bird to change costume). An all natural superfood made up of sprout-able seed suitable for large birds (cockatiel to macaw)  Provides increased amino acids and antioxidants. Soak this mix and let it sprout, then feed it to your birds for extra nutrition, vitamins and minerals for optimum bird health.  Ingredients: Maple peas, white peas, blue peas, buckwheat, mung beans, lentils, popcorn, whole maize, NZ sunflower, and wheat. Available in a 2kg and 5kg pack. Sprouting Instructions 🌱 RINSE well until water runs clear SOAK for 8-12 hours in a bowl, well covered in water Spread sprouts in a colander, bag or dish and place in a dark, well ventilated area RINSE well several times a day Super Sprout is ready for use when tails first begin to appear Rinse well and allow to dry off before serving. NEVER feed old or spoiled sprouts. Sprouts should smell sweet and earthy, not sour.

    Cracked for easier digestion. Kibbled maize is whole maize (corn) that has been roller crushed to a smaller size. It is ideal for feeding out to silkies, bantams, pheasants, doves, pigeons, partridge and of course regular-sized chooks! Kibbled maize is also ideal for horses, pigs, sheep, goats, cattle and deer. We kibble to order, so your bag will be fresh.  Please note our kibbled maize is whole corn fed through rollers that crush and crack the grains.

    Mini Step On Feeder 6kg | Appletons

    14 reviews

    Space-saver auto feeder! Best step on feeder for small spaces. If space is a premium in the chicken coop then this mini feeder is the one for you 😊 The best thing about the Appletons MINI Step On Feeder is that it takes up ONLY half the space of the Appletons Large Step On Feeder and does the same job. Benefits: For chook keepers with 3 to 4 hens. Remember an average laying hen eats app. 130 - 140g of layer pellets a day so the consumption vs when you need to fill it  Suitable for all standard sized birds (brown shavers and hylines), heavy breeds and some larger light breeds (leghorns.) This brilliant step-on auto chicken feeder holds approximately 6kg. 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 best not to be rushed or shortened.  Chickens need to be POL (point of lay) 18+ weeks of age and older for training. Dimensions: app. 30cm (long) x 46cm (wide) x 22cm (height) (Height when fully open is 40cm) What Size is Best? The large step on feeder or mini (space saver) step on feeder?The large size is more suitable for a larger walk-in hen house especially if you plan to position the feeder inside the hen house or outside in the poultry run (protected from the weather) where there is plenty of space. The large step on is twice as wide as the mini and therefore offers more hens the opportunity to feed at once (+ it also holds more food.) The mini 6kg version is perfect for smaller flocks living in movable chicken coops where the footprint of the coop is small and space is a premium. Using two mini step on feeders in a larger flock (instead of one large one) can work well as two feeding stations can dissipate any possible dominance over the feeder by a bossy hen/s and also help when introducing new birds. The perfect solution for those that keep 3 to 4 chooks in a mobile chicken coop like the Ultimate Coop on Wheels or the Eglu Cube Chicken Coop. "At one stage we were feeding all the neighborhood sparrows, mice and rats and it was costing us a fortune. When we moved to these step-on feeders (now 16 years ago!) and got the chooks trained to use them our feed bill was considerably reduced and the feed now stays clean and is no longer contaminated with mouse/sparrow droppings. Plus our chook houses are also now free of sparrow droppings and easier to keep clean reducing risk from contamination like salmonella and other diseases carried by the wild birds and rodents. Definitely worth the investment. It will pay for itself in no time!" Fionna Appleton

    Feed-o-matic Treadle Feeder | Olba

    64 reviews

    Suitable for all chicken breeds. 4 sizes to suit your requirements: 5kg, 8kg, 12kg and a 20kg capacity Benefits: The unique treadle operation of this feeder will ensure your poultry has all-day access to their favourite feed.   No risk of injury with the unique treadle system which allows your poultry to walk on to the ramp which activates an inwards opening trap door, giving free access to their feed. The operating system is almost silent which will not spook extra timid poultry.  The feeder can be operated by all poultry big and small from the smallest of bantams to the largest of heavy breeds. The adjustable weight of the pedal allows adjustments for birds as little as 250 grams to open, if this is too light, then simply adjust to one of the 5 different settings.  Built from robust heavy gauge galvanised steel and mouse-proof. They will also work well to keep the sparrow and other wild birds out too. Please note trough and treadle are plastic and not rat proof. For best results, we recommend using this feeder undercover and out of the weather.   Useful Info on Training Training takes approximately a week. We recommend not feeding the chooks anywhere else or out of any other feeders whilst in training so they learn to use their new feeder. Try placing a stone on the treadle for the first 3 or 4 days so they learn where the food is, then remove the weight and let them learn to stand on the treadle to expose the feed. They will quickly get the hang of it. To keep the best flow into the feed trough we recommend using a small even-sized pellet in these feeders like the Weston layer pellets. Dry mash due to its powdery consistency will require regular cleaning out to keep the flow moving. Do not use feeds that contains molasses, neither are they good for your hens they also clog the feeder eg: Chook Tucker. Please note the slot at the base of the hopper can be adjusted to regulate the flow of feed. We recommend letting your chooks empty it regularly so the fine dust that builds up with both pellets and mash can be cleaned out. Dimensions (approximate) :5kg - 260mm wide x 400mm high x 480mm deep - including treadle8kg - 275mm wide x 470mm high x 480mm deep - including treadle12kg - 345mm wide x 495mm high x 480mm deep - including treadle20kg - 345mm wide x 660mm high x 480mm deep - including treadle The two smaller sizes are narrower across the front (26cm and 27.5cm) only allowing 1 hen to feed at a time. The two larger sizes are wider (both 34.5cm) which will allow 1 very large hen or two standard sized hens (brown shavers) to feed at the same time.

    1 in stock

    Very effective organic treatment for poultry scaly leg mite. This treatment is totally organic. A mixture of Cotton Seed Oil and Eucalyptus. Instructions.Spray oil on legs, avoiding the feathers. Saturate the affected areas.  "Scaly Leg Spray" works by suffocation. A good poultry leg spray should be applied twice a week (every 4 to 6 days) to the feet and legs for four treatments. Cleanliness and sanitary measures around the chicken coop are in order because the mites can live for long periods in cracks and crevices without feed and water. Please keep bottle at room temperature and best used when contents is warm. If too cold the liquid will not move through the sprayer. Do Your Chickens Have Scaly Leg Mite?Scaly legs on chickens are caused by a parasitic mite (Knemidocoptes mutans) that burrow under the scales on the chicken's legs. The damaged tissue weeps, which is what these mites feed on. Signs and Symptoms. Raised scales on the legs. Crusty legs. Lameness (severe cases). Can also be found on the comb and wattles. In the early stages of the infection, the chicken will have mild irritation. It takes several months of infection before the scales on the legs start to lift. Repeat application is recommended. You should treat all of your birds even if only one bird has scaly legs, as scaly leg mite is very contagious and it is highly likely that all of your birds will have the mite.Scaly foot is a bird ailment that is common among caged birds and also affects many other bird species. It is caused by mites in the genus Knemidocoptes which burrow into the bird's flesh. The tunnels made by the mites within the skin cause dermatitis and scaly lesions. Scaly face is caused by the same mite responsible for scaly foot and other related mites cause depluming. The condition is transmitted from one bird to another by direct prolonged contact.

    Flubenol 5% | Poultry and Pig Wormer

    68 reviews

    This worming treatment has no egg withholding period. Yes, you can keep eating the eggs 😊 Flubenol™ 5% contains flubendazole, a broad-spectrum anthelmintic with high efficacy against all gastrointestinal worm species that commonly occur in poultry. It is effective against roundworms (Ascaridia galli, Heterakis gallinarum, Capillaria spp., Amidostomum anseris and Trichostrongylus tenuis), gapeworm (Syngamus trachea) and tapeworms (Raillietina sp.). Its safety profile allows a safe and secure use in most poultry species, including the breeding stock. Flubenol is a tasteless powder which is added to dry feed.  Dosage for chickens/turkeys/geese/partridge and pheasants. Dosage rate:To treat your flock mix the powder thoroughly into the feed and feed it for seven consecutive days. It needs to be thoroughly mixed through the pellets or dry mash. (Do not just sprinkle on top.) To treat a large flock (22-25 hens) mix 15g (3 teaspoons) into 21.5kg feed for chickens and geese or for a smaller flock (7-8 hens) 5g (one teaspoon) per 7kg feed. (please check the recommended daily ration on your feed bag to determine the exact amount). To treat pheasants and partridge mix 15g (3 teaspoons) with 11kg feed. To treat turkeys mix 15g (3 teaspoons) in with 32kg feed. In case of infestation with tapeworm, double the dose for seven consecutive days. Do not use this product to treat pigeons or parrots. How to dose: Calculate what 1 hen eats daily. The best way to do this is to look at the bag of layer feed you are using which will indicate the recommended daily feed ration on the back. For Weston Layer feed it is app. 130g per day per hen.  Count the number of hens in your flock (best to treat everyone). Multiply the number of hens by the daily ration for one hen. This total will indicate how much feed your flock eats in a day. Then multiply this number by seven (the number of days you will be treating) If using an auto feeder empty the feeder and fill it with the calculated amount of medicated feed for the week. (If your calculations are correct then this quantity should feed them for the week)   Let your hens self-help for seven days.  On the eighth day remove and empty the feeder. Replace with non-medicated fresh feed. For best results we recommend sanitising/ cleaning your hen house at the same time  using Poultry Safeguard. For more info on deworming your flock read here. Follow up TreatmentAll poultry worms have a life cycle of between 2 to 7 weeks. It is really important to break this life cycle so a repeat treatment should be administered within the pre-patient period of the worm/s (PPP). The PPP is the time period in days from worm egg ingestion by the chicken until the adult worm starts producing eggs in the chicken and sheds these eggs into the environment. When dealing with specific problem worm species, we always consider the PPP of the worm in question, because you want to try and keep your Flubenol treatment interval just shorter than this time period, so that you effectively prevent further contamination of the environment with worm eggs, and thereby just continue the infective cycle.So for instance with normal large roundworm (Ascarid) infection, a longer treatment interval of around 5-6 weeks is what we suggest (the life cycle or PPP of this worm species is the longest of all the commonly found poultry worms). However, with Gapeworm, the PPP is around 2-3 weeks. So to effectively control the burden for this worm species we recommend following up with another treatment 2 weeks after completion of the first.We recommend doing a follow-up treatment of Flubenol within the PPP for the worm you are treating. The good news - no withholding period for eggs and meat for poultry. Symptoms following overdosing: Flubenol 5% is non-toxic; even considerable overdosing does not produce side effects.  In poultry, even three times the highest dose for seven days had no negative effects on egg production, egg quality, hatching results and growth of offspring.Treatment with Flubenol can only be effective if the hygiene of pig pens and poultry housing is observed. Available in a 600g tub and in smaller sachets for treating smaller flocks. Treatment for Pigs Flubenol is effective against the mature and immature larvae and eggs of the following species of worm: Large Roundworm, Red Stomach Worm, Nodular Worm Lungworm, Threadworm and Whipworm. Individual treatment: (Single administration).Add 1 g of Flubenol for each 10 kg bodyweight onto the finished feed. (This is equivalent to 5 mg of flubendazole per one kg bodyweight). One 13 g measuring spoon treats one 130 kg sow. An easy way of administering the dose is to add it to a buttered bread roll and feed it to your pig. Treat twice a year unless recommended otherwise by your veterinary surgeon.  Pigs brought onto the premises should be treated on arrival and before mixing with other animals.  Animals must not be slaughtered for human consumption within 7 days of treatment.

  • Aviverm Worm Remedy 50ml

    Aviverm Poultry Wormer 50ml

    7 reviews

    It's good practice to worm your hens regularly. Monitoring your chickens droppings is one way to keep track of their general health. If you see signs of worms in their faecal matter we recommend worming your poultry.  Active Ingredient: Levamisole Hydrochloride 24% w/v as an aqueous solutionEffective treat for worms for chickens, turkeys, ducks, cage birds and pigeons. Aviverm™ is an anthelmintic which provides simultaneous treatment of immature and adult stages of the three most important intestinal worms: Ascaridia (roundworm; Capillaria (hairworm); Heterakis (cecal worm) Easy to use ONE dose treatment to expel mature and immature roundworms. Birds should immediately resume full growth rate and egg production. A ready-to-pour liquid concentrate that makes a clear solution in their drinking water. Palatable to birds of all ages.Worm-free birds mean higher egg production, faster growth rate, reduced mortality, better feed conversion, top condition and bloom, uniform batches - fewer reject carcases. The withholding period for eating eggs or birds produced for meat is 7 days AFTER treatment. Directions for Use: Estimate the number of birds served by each tank and also their average weight. Using these figures, estimate their total live weight. Now estimate how much “AVIVERM” is required at a dose rate of 1mL per 9kg live weight. Add this quantity of AVIVERM to the drinking water – ensure sufficient water is available for 8 hours normal consumption. DOSAGE RATE:1 mL per 9kg live weight (equivalent to 0.03g/kg levamisole hydrochloride) Total Live Weight  Dose (based on 1ml per 9kg live weight) 30g 0.003mL 50g 0.006mL 70g 0.008mL 90g 0.01mL 250g 0.03mL 500g 0.06mL 750g 0.08mL 1kg 0.11mL   ADMINISTRATION:For maximum efficiency the treated water should be consumed in the shortest possible time. Withhold water from 2 hours before nightfall until morning or the lights are turned on and then supply treated water only. Flush out tanks and replace with fresh water after 8 hours, or as soon as the treated water is consumed. Broilers and other chickens raised under continuous lighting, withhold water for one hour in summer or two hours in winter before supplying the treated water.Then continue as above.Aviverm is to be used as a single treatment.  Repeat doses are to be made no sooner than 21 days after the previous treatment and only after seeking advice from a suitably qualified or experienced Animal Health advisor.  FOR BEST RESULTS: Administer AVIVERM in the drinkers the birds are accustomed to using and check that all the drinkers are working properly. Avoid treating on a day when normal water consumption of a flock might be reduced to a sudden drop in temperature. Do not treat in extremely hot weather. AVIVERM will not affect the growth rate or egg production of the birds, nor will it affect the fertility or hatchability of eggs when used in accordance with directions.  AVIVERM is an anthelmintic that provides simultaneous treatment of immature and adult stages of the three most important intestinal worms (Ascaridia spp., Capillaria spp., Heterakis spp.) in fowls, turkeys and other birds. WITHOLDING TIMES: Withholding Times:Animals producing meat and offal for human consumption must not be sold for slaughter during or within 7 days of the last treatment. Eggs from treated birds must not be sold for human consumption for 6 days following the cessation of the last treatment.

    Pour-on Drench 30ml

    53 reviews

    Very effective for treating poultry lice. Used with great results in poultry circles as a reliable treatment for most internal and external parasites. Effective on external parasites ie: lice and scaly leg mite but will also kill any red mites that try to suck off your chicken.  This is long-lasting endectocide and is applied directly to the skin of the bird. It is approved for use on other farm animals but has not been officially approved for use on poultry hence the recommended 14-day withholding period for eggs and meat. This little bottle will treat a good number of birds. (Approximately 100 treatments if applied correctly.) Now available in a dropper bottle with nozzle and cap for handy dosing. Helpful Notes.What are you treating your birds for? Worms? If you are treating for internal parasites we recommend following up treatment within the prepatent period of the particular worm you are treating for. We have a great blog on worming which you may find helpful (link here). If your hens are laying best to use a product that has no withholding period like Flubenol.Lice?If you are treating for external parasites: eg. lice then we recommend a one off treatment is usually only necessary. We also advise checking again after a couple weeks to make sure the louse infestation has gone. If not - then best to repeat. We generally inspect (physical health check) our birds 2 to 4 times a year (usually when the seasons change) and treat them accordingly for lice. We find the pour on drench works brilliantly for lice control. Poison. Keep away from children. Please note this is a liquid and we cannot slip it into a courier satchel - it needs to be sent in a box.

    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.

    Anti-feather pecking spray for poultry. We are not sue as to whether this will be available in the future  in NZ. 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 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.
