Purple carrot rose cheesecake

Another purple hued bakery item and yet again using purple carrots to give the vibrant purple colour. It's basically vegetables so it doesn't count as dessert right? 😃

Ivermectin for chickens

Image
So on some chicken forums I've heard that people are using Ivermectin "off-label" to treat their poultry for parasites (such as mites and lice) and they recommend an egg witholding period of 7 days. It's off-label as there have been very few studies looking at the metabolism of this drug through avians. In December last year, there has been one scientific study done on Ivermectin and poultry. So is there a clear answer to it's safety in poultry and more importantly, how long before you can eat the eggs?
