Compostable Worm Count Kit - Chickens

£10.50

Worm egg count kit for chickens and other poultry. The pack contains everything you need for taking a sample either from an individual bird or a composite sample for up to 5 birds. Includes a voucher for the laboratory test.

This test kit is now sold in a unique compostable pouch which becomes the return envelope to send the sample back to the lab. It's unique zero waste design leaves you no waste to dispose of, all of it can be returned back to us. Once we've processed it here in the lab we'll compost it on the farm and eventually use it to establish new tree planting on our 75 acre nature reserve we're developing on land restored from open cast coal mining.

This test is suitable for sampling of all avians including chickens, ducks, geese, pigeon, pheasants, quail etc.

If taking a composite test from several birds please mix the samples in the large plastic bag provided before filling the sample container. Full instructions enclosed. Kit includes:

  • a sample pot for the individual sample or combined composite sample of the birds 
  • a voucher for the laboratory processing of the test(s)
  • a compostable glove
  • a compostable post paid return label. 

One composite sample can be taken for up to 5 birds.  More than that requires an additional test pack to ensure a representative sample for your flock.

Horse 4Count Season Pack

Kath

Horse Owner

I have a tricky horse, he can have a worm burden even when his fellow herd mates do not so I have to keep an eye on this with regular checks. I have used Westgate Labs worm counts for many years now and thankfully as a result of their reliable, efficient service we are on top of the situation. 

Thank you Westgate Labs, much appreciated.
