WORMER.... Many available but... I use panacur pellets (1.5%), Fenbendazole 15mg in 1g pellets. From Intervet, pellets are palatable and easy to administer and weigh out if you have accurate gram scales. FIRST: Weigh your pig. Can use heart girth squared (m), multiply by length (m) and then multiply by 69.3 to get weight in KG. ie length from between ears to top of tail, and heart girth round pig behind shoulders. Then weigh out 5g pellets per 15kg of pig weight ( 1g for 3kg of pig if you want to be more precise!) THEN divide the dose into 7 separate doses and feed over 7 days to break life cycle of the worm in the pig. HOWEVER, if your pigs live outside, they are likely to re-infest them selves by eating worms and slugs and snails, which ingest the eggs that your pigs have helpfully pooed out. Rotating pastures is generally helpful, but the worm burden can survive for years. www.thepigsite.com is really helpful for info on pig health and treatments/diseases etc. How do you know they have lungworm??
