Stressed Chickens - Imustress
Imustress is Natural Animal Health’s natural product to support all types of poultry and fowl including hens, ducks, turkeys, geese and pigeons to deal with stressful situations. There are seven main causes of stress for chickens including transportation, change in housing and environment, change of feed, disturbances to routine, bad weather or unwelcome visitors such as a fox attack. Stress can lead to a lowering of the bird’s resistance and consequently can result in increased disease and mortality.
Simply add it to the birds’ drinking water, disallowing any other drinking water for 2 days prior to planned stressful event and two days afterwards.
There are two sizes available - 100ml and 250ml, priced at £16 and £29 respectively.

How to use Imustress

before stressful event occurs i.e. transportation to a show or new location.
If possible, try to reduce the available drinking water to one day’s intake per bird to ensure the dose is taken within 24 hours.
If young birds consume the Imustress treated drinking water, this is safe.
