Hide it in the rice!

Post by PetHeaven »

Hello All
Some of you may know about this but just thought I'd post it for the newbies. One of my girls is a bit off colour so after a trip to the vets I'm home now with a bottle of antibiotics and a sick chicken. Just spent some time looking at her and the tablets and wondered how I was going to get the two together. But then I got the answer...RICE. I crushed the tablet, mixed it with a little water and mixed in some cooked rice...and what a success. I also did this with the worming sachets that I got at the same time and did both girls. This works so much better than with the cat or dog who know immediately that theres something suspicious lurking in their food.
