Crunchies Feeding Guide & Composition

25kg+  —  6 per day
11-25kg  —  4 per day
Up to 10kg  —  2 per day

Puppies should be fed half the adult amount between three to six months of age, and the full amount thereafter. For continued effectiveness, feed daily. When introducing Verm-X, or when required, double the quantity can be safely fed over 14 days. Prior to introducing any new product have a Faecal Egg Count (FEC) so you have a record of your starting point. As their effect is cumulative, use the daily crunchies for at least 3 weeks before doing a follow up FEC. We recommend that all dogs have regular faecal egg counts (at least twice a year) to avoid unnecessary control programmes.

120g will last a small dog 1 month.
