"I use oregano oil every day in my chicks' drinking water. It smells nice and the chicks drink the water well." — Linda K., verified review
Why choose Oregano Oil?
- Natural antibacterial properties — carvacrol and thymol have been extensively studied for their antibacterial and antioxidative effects
- Keeps drinking troughs cleaner — inhibits the attachment of algae and bacteria, keeping drinking troughs fresh for longer, especially in summer
- May contribute to firmer droppings — multiple chicken keepers report a noticeable difference
- Easy to dose — with the included dosing pipette
Oregano oil and coccidiosis: what does the research say?
Coccidiosis is a serious intestinal parasite infection, particularly risky for chicks. Laboratory research has shown that carvacrol and thymol can inhibit the growth of the coccidiosis parasite (Eimeria) — promising, but this is research under controlled conditions, not a guarantee in practice.
Oregano oil is not a substitute for standard coccidiosis prevention: good hygiene, dry litter, and medicated chick feed where necessary. If you notice bloody droppings, lethargy, or reduced appetite in your chicks, always contact a vet — coccidiosis can worsen quickly.

Ik gebruik de oregano olie elke dag in het drinkwater van mijn kuikens. Het ruikt lekker en de kuikens drinken het water goed.

Heerlijk geurend, makkelijk te doseren en hopelijk effectief. Ik geef het preventief aan mijn krielen. Ik ben 2 kippen verloren aan coccidiose, ik hoop dat nooit nooit meer mee te maken, arme beestjes
