ivermectin

Hello chicken friends I'm looking for help and discussion about dosing a mini pig using the paste (Links follow).. the difference in digestion process and how it might effect dosage. as opposed to pour on or injectable. Please note I am treating for what appears to be a chronic skin condition...

I have a Broody hen in my garage with 7 eggs that are due to hatch in about a week. Unfortunately she has Northern Fowl Mites. I gave her a bath in dawn dish soap, gave her a new home, and did 2 drops of ivermectin on her neck. It’s only been 24 hours but I’m still seeing mites, I’m...

My 4yr old Barred Rock hen is in the middle of a rough molt. I upgraded her food w/o transition & shortly after, she developed signs of illness and severe diarrhea. By day 6, I finally got fecal results back from a vet that showed she had no parasitic infection. Wouldn’t offer any more help...

I'm seeing a lot of helpful information on Ivermectin dosages here, however, I'm a bit confused as to when I need to reapply it for northern red fowl mites and scaly leg mites. I'm using the pour on 5 mg strength. I keep seeing a second dosage after 7 days but I'm also seeing after 10 days. And...

I keep reading elector PSP is the best spray to treat a coop for red mites, is there anything more affordable out there that actually works? Has anyone had any luck with ivermectin?

My 8 week old gosling and my runner ducks have feather lice. I've dusted them with DE and cleaned their house and put DE there but they are still suffering. Feathers are starting to look raggedy! I can see the suckers on their feathers! Yikes! I've looked around and some people use Ivermectin...

Hi, I had two chickens until yesterday. Now I have one and I'm beyond desperate to resolve this. My birds have been sick for two years now with respiratory issues. I have had the vet out on multiple occasions. I had suggested Gapeworm at one point and he said it wasn't (without testing, just...

Will someone please post a link of which ivermectin to purchase to have on hand for worming my chickens later if needed?

I’m curious…with all the attention ivermectin has gained over “the” virus…and now I personally know multiple people taking it as a supplement… Do you really think egg withdrawal is necessary when worming chickens with ivermectin? I’ve read a couple different suggestions, an egg withdrawal time...

Hello, I have an approx 1.5 yr old hen who seems to struggle with roundworm load. I’ve dewormed my whole flock with pirazine twice this year (spring and fall) but found 5 worms in this one hens droppings this morning and want to try something different. More limited options in Canada but I got...

Hello, hello! I have a worming conundrum! Quick facts: -flock of 8 hens, 1 rooster, 5 8-week-old chicks that were hatched by our hen (we have NOT treated the chicks as I read not to worm them until they are fully grown, nor have I found worms in their small droppings) -all are blue or golden...

My hens have had this for a while now.... I think its scaly leg mites? What's a good treatment? Ivermectin injectable (orally or some drops on the back of their neck?) Scarlex Rubbing alcohol (on their feet) I have a flock of 15 hens, so I really would like something other than the long...

I found what I think were roundworms in a poop on my deck and started treating my flock with Valbazen 10 days ago. I just gave them a second dose today and noticed that a few of my hens look like they may have scaly leg mites. Sheesh! I’ve treated it before successfully with Ivermectin pour on...

I’ve tried to find info on this but it’s confusing. I’m hoping to use the pour-on or oral ivermectin to treat for a bad case of scaly leg mites and possibly deworm. My sheep may also need to be dewormed, but from what I can tell the ivermectin for cattle is not approved for sheep. Since...

Has anyone tried ivermectin for scaly leg mite?

I’ve used the Equimax for treating tapeworms (which worked great by the way) and was wondering if it would be as effective for roundworms? It’s been wet and muddy for a while, and I saw one roundworm, in a hen’s feces. I’ve used straight up ivermectin before for roundworms….But I was...

So we started treating mites 3-4 weeks ago. First we treated with permethrin for a week or 2 then switched to ivermectin for 2 weeks. We cleaned the coop out and sprayed it down each time we treated the birds. I double and triple checked the dosages and concentrations we used. We checked last...

How many milaleters of cow ivermectin would I give to my chickens?

Earlier this week we had to cull the smallest chicken, who had become extremely lethargic, runny liquid poop, feathers ruffled, not moving at all and not eating. He was my daughter’s favourite chicken and she was terribly affected by the loss. The little cockerel was a pet to her. That left us...

Hi, I am a new member but have read a few of your threads. I am into my second year chicken keeping and am still green behind the ears. First question. I have a flock of five and a flock of three that I would like to merge but the bigger birds still try to nip at the young birds with...
