Ours are also convinced every new thing is part of a fiendish plot too. They cluck the famous battle cry "Run Away, Run Away" and just look at it terrified, till I take pity on them and remove it. Confused

I 've had an idea! How about a pecka block (thanks for the whole idea, and how to make a pecka block, Bhindi!) made from all the seeds and things that can help to get rid of worms? I'm gonna have a go at making one, I'll let you know how it goes down with the chooks. Very Happy Surely it'll work, as good as any chemical wormer??!! Wink I've tried my chooks on pumpkin seeds, fennel seeds, sesame seeds, onion and garlic, (all supposed to get rid of worms) and they seemed to like them all, so maybe i could include all those things!!! Now for some experimenting!!! Wink Very Happy
