Description:
Article published in Journal of Veterinary Medicine and Health 2022, Vol 6(4): 151 With ever-growing drug resistance and significant global prevalence, gastrointestinal nematodes are an increasingly common cause of death on small ruminant and camelid operations, threatening the productivity and economic health of those industries. An alternative to traditional anthelmintics is an herbal feed additive called Early Bird. The formula includes constituents shown to be effective as nematicides, and addresses the comorbidities associated with acute and chronic parasitism.
