OXYGEER Merck Animal Health Dewormer Pellets 10lb

Pellets may be top dressed on feed or blended with the ground feed. Fenbendazole 0.5% dewormer removes lungworms, stomach worms, intestinal worms, bankrupt worms, and nodular worms in cattle. Strategic Deworming Research has shown that cattle roundworms reach a peak of activity in early summer. Worming during June strategically reduces the parasite burden. Egg counts in the manure drop, reducing re-infestation for the remainder of the grazing season. This works in both cows and calves.

Farmers can expect up to 22-70 lbs. of extra gain in yearlings, 30-60 lbs. heavier weaning weights, and a 10% higher conception rate when they strategically deworm their herd during the peak of roundworm activity in early summer. The deworming medication should be fed at a rate of 1 lb. of pellets per 1000 lbs. of body weight for one feeding. This targeted approach to parasite management can help cattle producers optimize the health and productivity of their herd.

By adjusting the timing of deworming to coincide with the seasonal peak in roundworm activity, farmers can effectively reduce the overall parasite burden in their cattle. This, in turn, leads to improved weight gain, weaning weights, and reproductive performance. The use of a 0.5% Fenbendazole-based dewormer that removes a range of worm species, including lungworms, stomach worms, intestinal worms, bankrupt worms, and nodular worms, further enhances the efficacy of the strategic deworming approach.

Incorporating the deworming pellets into the cattle's feed, either as a top dressing or blended into the ground feed, ensures that the medication is administered consistently and effectively. The recommended dosage of 1 lb. of pellets per 1000 lbs. of body weight provides the appropriate amount of the active ingredient to achieve the desired deworming results.

By adopting this strategic deworming protocol, cattle producers can optimize the health and productivity of their herd, leading to tangible improvements in weight gain, weaning weights, and conception rates. This comprehensive approach to parasite management not only benefits the individual animals but also contributes to the overall profitability and sustainability of the cattle operation.
