Tricks for paste de-wormer

i grab the nose (just like a twitch) and stick the dewormer in real quick. then i hold the head up for a few seconds....maybe i should try the molasses trick....

lol you guys are some troopers to wrestle them like that!!
I just squirt the paste out into a good sized handful of sweetfeed in her feed bucket, and BAM, she takes it w/ no problem

But I like things the easy way, I figure what's the point in fighting if there's nothing to really fight over

What i always do is i take a carrot or liccorish or something like long and i put in the side of there mouth....and then you dont that for a bit and then one of the times use the dewormer and they will think its a treat again aha and then just push it in their mouth lol and then of course lots of cookies after! haha let me no if it works, cuz i she works on my mare

Try washing out an old tube and fill it with molasses. Give her a tube of molasses every day for a week then one twice a week. When it is the real time, dip the end in molasses, she will grab it fast. Follow that up with a molasses tube.

thats exactly what i was gonna say. I do that also or with applesauce.

Flavored wormer is good. Also I will squirt it on an alfalfa cube and give it to them that way. Thank goodnes we have them all trained to take wormer.
