FAQ

 

  • If I want to only administer Poultry Booster to one of my birds, can I hand feed them individually instead of mixing it into other feed?

    • Yes, straight from your hand or in a pail is fine. We would suggest 1/3 to 1/2 of a scoop per bird per day.

  • Do you still make the Triple Action Multi-Wormer?

    • Unfortunately no, we do not manufacture it anymore. When the FDA made the active ingredient a drug requiring a veterinary prescription the supplier for that ingredient discontinued production. At this time we do not have a replacement. 

  • Is the Rooster Booster Poultry Wound Spray comparable to Vetericyn?

    • Rooster Booster Poultry Wound Spray is not comparable to Vetericyn. Our Wound Spray is tea tree oil (a natural antiseptic) along with healing ingredients comfrey, goldenseal, myrrh, and aloe vera.

  • How long is an open bottle of Rooster Booster Pick-No-More Lotion good for? Does it have an expiration date? 

    • Rooster Booster Pick-No-More Lotion has a “best by” date of 2 years from the date of production. After that, we can’t guarantee the potency of the ingredients, but they are perfectly safe and effective for long after. Keep the bottle in a cool, dark cabinet away from sunlight to extend the life.

  • Rooster Booster Vitamins And Electrolytes with Lactobacillus instructions say to use for 3-5 days as needed. Why not use it every day? 

    • The Vitamins & Electrolytes are designed to be used during times of stress. This can include new baby chicks, extreme weather fluctuations, moving to a new home, taking birds to a show or exhibit, molting, etc. 

      Since it contains a couple of oil-based vitamins and quite a bit of salt we recommend that it only be used for several days at a time and repeated only as needed. Long term use can create an accumulation of these elements in your birds' system.

  • During the hot summer months I’d like to be able to provide my flock with a supplement to keep them hydrated, what do you suggest? 

    • We recommend our Vitamins & Electrolytes with Lactobacillus as it helps make the birds consume more water and the live microbials support healthy gut flora.

  • How much Rooster Booster Poultry Cell would I add to my birds 5 Liter water container, and how often do I add it?

    • The amount to mix into 5 Liters would be 1.3 oz, or 38.5 CC’s, and it’s best to refill this mixture once a day for a week or two. The iron will settle to the bottom eventually, so make a new batch, shake the mixture or stir daily.

  • How much of the Rooster Booster Vitamins and Electrolytes with Lacto Bacillus do I mix in for 1 quart of water? 

    • Mixing up such a small batch can be a bit challenging, as the real ratio would be 1/12th of a teaspoon, which would be hard to measure. We suggest that you instead use 1/8th of a teaspoon or a half of a 1/4 teaspoon if you do not have a 1/8th teaspoon measurer. It’s a bit stronger than the suggested ratio, but will not hurt them. 

  • Can the mixture of Rooster Booster Vitamins and Electrolytes with Lacto Bacillus in water be used over a few days, or do I need to make a new batch every day? 

    • It’s best to use up the mixture of Rooster Booster Vitamins and Electrolytes with Lacto Bacillus and water within a day or 2. Since the lactobacillus is live microbials they won’t be effective after a couple of days. You could keep the mixture in the refrigerator for a couple of days to keep it as fresh as possible.

  • How much Rooster Booster Poultry Cell would I administer to an adult goose? 

    • 3cc daily of Rooster Booster Poultry Cell for a week to 10 days.

  • Can Rooster Booster Poultry Cell be given to a week old duckling?

    • Yes, just follow the directions on the label for mixing it in a gallon of water. Provide the mixture daily for about a week. The iron will settle to the bottom eventually, so make a new batch, shake the mixture or stir daily.

  • Which of your products would you suggest as a regular use (daily) supplement?

    • Poultry Booster is designed to be a daily top-dress for overall health.

      Poultry Cell is designed for use while birds are molting or other times of stress or illness. It is a great source of iron and vitamins.   

      Vitamins and Electrolytes with Lacto Bacillus is a great product for new chicks, extreme temperature changes and to boost immune response during times of stress. It helps make the birds consume more water and the live microbials support healthy gut flora.

      So, each has it’s unique features, depending on the needs of the birds. If you just want something for daily use I would recommend the Poultry Booster.
