No those are tapeworms. They were like litttle strands squirming around

I noticed tiny worms in my chickens poop today. I’m preparing to deworm my whole flock and happen to have safeguard goat dewormer on hand. What is the egg withdrawal period? Also, I have silkies as well as standard breed chickens. What’s the dosage for both bantam and standard? I’m aware it’s given orally. My chickens have had diarrhea for some time and I’m thinking this is why. Pics of some of my cute silkies

Sorry you haven't gotten a direct answer, hopefully this will help.

Safeguard liquid goat dewormer is dosed by weight. Withdrawal period is 14days after the final dosage.

To treat most worms that poultry can have except for Tapeworm you can use Safeguard (Fenbendazole) or Valbazen (Albendazole). Both are given orally by weight; they do not mix well with water.

Safeguard dose is 0.23ml per pound of weight given orally once a day for 5 days in a row.

---OR---
Valbazen dose is 0.08ml per pound of weight given orally once, then repeated in 10 days

Here's how to give oral medications:
