can someone please remind me where u can buy panacur pour-on for pigs? thanx
-
your vet should be able to supply you :farmer:

Panacur is an oral only wormer ,for sheep and cattle in liquid form,for pigs in pellet or powder form. Pour ons are for cattle
-
ok thanx
-
what is wrong with injectable wormer i am sure Lilian has used pour on before and mentioned it on here and caused a bit of a stushie it does not say pigs on the label :farmer:
-
id run out of panomec and thought there was a pig pour-on so i thot id try that. no matter.
last time we bought panomec was via the vet, iv seen it online a third cheaper, does it matter (from animal health man pooint of view) where u buy it from?
-
Have you looked into the idea of using food grade diatomaceous earth to kill worms?
-
I only buy antibiotics from my vet everything else i buy from an agricultural supplier or the internet much cheaper and a bigger choice . :farmer:

I am, hopefully, going to discuss this with one of the vets in our practise today. No good asking "the boss" as he will look horrified and tell me someone must come out and inject all my pigs once a month with the very expensive stuff he sells, whilst dreams of his exotic summer holiday takes shape at my expense no doubt ::)
I have looked it up on-line and it seems a very sound idea :)
