I wormed them with Wazine about 8 days ago. Not sure about killing the eggs but I do not think it does from what I recall reading in an article recently. I read the larva can live in the ground for up to seven years.
Thank you! Next time I worm in six months, I will give it a try. It is so much easier in water than to grab each chicken, pry open mouth, inject, mark chicken, then refill syringe, and start over again 18 more times. Keep in mind doing this by myself.
I'm confused...Sorry, I'm just not that smart at this, which is sure that is what you are all thinking by now. :)
So if I have a syringe for adults that is measured in ml/cc and is marked 1/2, 1, 1 1/2, etc, how much paste dosage should I give each 5 lb chicken? The dosage indicates on the box...
I have a syringe that is broken down by 0.1 ml, 0.2 ml ect up to one 1.0 ml/cc. So if I understand correctly, I would give a 5 lb chx .59 which is just under the 0.6 mark. Wazine is so much easier to does. Two ounces/2 tbls per gallon with the Wazine.
I just don't want to hurt my chickens. I'm...
Since getaclue suggested a smaller syringe, I will try that route. Since I have Zimecterin Gold (ivermectin 1.55%/Praziquantel 7.75% paste) how many ml would I give a chicken who weighs approx. 5 to 8 lbs? I do so much appreciate everyone's help!:wee
I am in the US and the wormer I have has ivermectin 1.55% /praziquantel 7.75% . The syringe is in 50 lbs increments and it goes up to 1250 lbs. I did see your note about not being water soluble. I had someone tell me locally I could mix it in some warm water in a bottle shaking it up well to let...
Thanks for the info! I'm not good at converting metric units. I'm old and did not learn that back in school. Can you tell me if my chickens weigh 8 lbs each, how much of a dose should I give 19 chickens? Thank you for help!
I can weigh a few of them and then estimate the rest of the flock. I'm not good with mg/kg. I'm old, didn't learn that in school back in the day. Do you mind converting to ounces :). Can I put that in water and if so, how many gallons per 50 lb increment? Thank you for your help.
I have 19 chickens and am wanting to deworm them using Zimecterin Gold. I have no idea how much I can give them/mix in their water. The plunger/syringe of the wormer appears to be in increments of 50 with the plunger going up to 1250 lbs. Does anyone know how much (notches on the...
