I did read about the Verm X post the other day and so I thought yes due for a worm(I usually only worm spring/Autumn as I poo pick daily am now down to one cob so I thought I was lucky to have time etc). So yesterday morning double dosed strongid P and this morning poo picking a mix of real normal poos with no evidence but then some right sloppy ones full of tape worm bits and full length looking ones. Each flat tapeworm segmant was about 3/4 inch and the long ones I suppose about 4 inches flat and long. They look like bits of lard. I have scrupulously poo picked as he is out 24/7. He is as happy as larry today!!No wonder he was always hungry feeding that lot of parasites!
Question one??
He doesnt like being stabled so the next question is shall I move him to new ungrazed pasture tommorow so he has had 2 days on his current strip of grass???
Question two?? I bought a tube of Equest gel and was going to give this in a weeks time as I know it has a longer effect. Is this ok got this for encysted etc as I realised it doesnt kill tapeworms
I have never seen the tapeworms before in 10 years and was quite shocked at them! Yuk!!
I dont normally do two lots of wormers at once but perhaps I should do a better programme now?
