    Dewormer

    Hi all! I tried going through the forum for answers but for some reason nothing is loading for me. I have a few quick questions. I’m deworming for specifically round worms, I don’t know if my whole flock has it but I know atleast 2 do so as preventive measure I’m deworming all. First question...

    My hen has round worms and coccidiosis. How long until she makes a full recovery and is it safe to assume she will make it?

    January 23rd my leader girl started laying in the middle of the run with her feathers ruffled up and her head hiding away. I figured it was due to the cold until the next day where I could tell she was way too sleepy and isolated and something was wrong. A trip to a our vet and he informed us...

    My girls gave me a Christmas surprise this morning!

    The Christmas surprise was roundworms. Two. Huge. Roundworms. Left right on top of a roost for me to see as soon as I walked in the coop this morning! 😁. So everyone got a nice dollop of fenbendazole this morning. My sweet Delaware, Willow, recognized the syringe and came running to gobble up...

    How often should I change up the worming meds

    Hello! My flock had round worm back in early April and I wormed them with safeguard. Well, it’s been very hot and wet this summer and I found a pile of cecal poop with round worms in it. So clearly, it’s time to worm again. My question is, should I still use safeguard or something else? I know...

    Treating the whole flock for roundworms- Water or feed additive?

    Hi all! I am wondering if there is a dewormer I can use to add to their feed or water to treat roundworms? I would like to avoid having to dose each bird if possible :) Thanks!

    Are my chicks too young to deworm?

    Hello! About a month and a half ago I had to deworm my older birds (they had a mild case of roundworm). My four chicks were way too young at the time, but now I’m worried they might have roundworm now after being outside. They are 7 1/2 weeks old Jersey giants. The only thing I noticed wrong...

    Roundworm treatment

    So I went out to my coop this morning and found this in some poop. I know it’s a roundworm and that I need to treat the whole flock then.

    Equimax Horse Dewormer for Roundworms??

    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...

    Tapeworm

    Hi. My chicken has been recently been treated for tapeworm, maybe a month ago, and today he had tape segments in his poop again. I wormed him using worm out gel 50ml and that worked. I was wondering if I can use it again in less than the three months treatment period safely? He is about 3 months...

    Is this cocci? (poo pictures)

    We have two 14 week old pullets waiting to join our existing flock. The pullets have been eating, drinking, playing, but act lethargic at times. I saw what I thought was blood in their poo last week and started them on Corid liquid, but didn’t know I needed to make a fresh batch every day. I...

    Roundworm?

    i found two of these worms on the poop board this morning. Google says this is a roundworm? How do I treat?! I have 4 week old baby chicks (they still sleep with momma chicken in their own area, no worms there). Do I treat them as well?
