Has anyone tried the homeopathic wormers?
I've tried the homeopathic route. I stuck in my conventional wormer to
check its effectiveness and found way to many adult egg laying worms.
Perhaps I didn't use the right rate. I had a hard time comprehending that
the levels were the same for the size of waterer and not the number of pigs.
I have about 600-700 pigs that I used this on and according to the
directions I recieved, I haven't used $23 worth of product yet. It sure
doesn't seem like enough to me. Any thoughts?
Anybody have any ideas on the rate of Tobacco to use? Where do I get
organic tobacco? Would the most effective(and safest) way to use it be to
grind it in the feed? That way I could distribute it evenly to all the pigs.
Isn't tobacco potentially lethal?
Best wishes,
Greg Gunthorp
