Chicken soup, with a hint of Hot Chocolate! 🫢.
You've just got yourself dried from swimming, still stinking of chlorine, and you want a hot (hotter than the sun) drink. What are you picking?

Interesting post @NickCotterJr, guess it depends on what you mean by ‘combo’!? Technically, we don’t have combos in UK/ROI, Startect is a dual-active ie 2 wormers! Some guidance from WAAVP here! 🪱
@Agrivetbusiness @johnmpringle1 @4FlocksSake I like combo logic but if used irresponsibly, all you’re left with in 3-4 years is Zolvix/Startect. Is advice in AUS to use combos but only if good parasite practices on farm (eg limited ewe drenching, some lambs untreated), or is the recommendation to use combos no matter what?.
