Can this product be used on birds?
Yes. Please make sure you know the weight of your bird and dose accordingly.

Yes. We recommend adding the water so that it can be consumed throughout the day, but if you would like to dose neat, you may do so. The dose rate still remains the same as it is based on weight, not dilution.
What can I add if my chickens are not consuming the water with Kilverm?
We recommend adding a little bit of honey to the water to create greater palatability.
