    Safeguard Mash - Zero Day Egg Withdrawal

    Couple of questions, I am treating for possible gape worm and reading I need to use 1ml per bird. I assume I need to go ahead and treat my whole flock for the 5 days needed, but then after that how often do I need to deworm them for prevention?

    15 week old Pullet not gaining weight or growing like rest of flock, what can I do?

    Update: She unfortunately passed away a couple hours ago, but I still want to ask if there was anything else I could have done? Or was she just not going to make it? I know this is the reality of keeping chickens, but if I can learn to prevent this in the future, I would love to know.

    15 week old Pullet not gaining weight or growing like rest of flock, what can I do?

    Hi everyone, I posted a thread a few weeks ago about dealing with some respiratory issues with a few of my bantam Cochin pullets, and the good news is they have gotten better from that. Two of them are totally back to normal and are back with the rest of the flock after being treated with...
