Roundworms, please help!

[Soleil_A]

Hello! So my mom just found out my chickens have round worm. I went to tractor supply and bought Wazine, but I have no idea how much to give them. I only have 3 chickens, all 6 weeks and up. I have a 3 gallon waterer. They got it at the worst time! I’m going on a boat trip until July 5th, and the sitter wants to do minimum work, so she probably won’t want to switch the water out everyday if needed.
Thanks!

The dose is once ounce per gallon of water. You leave them only water treated with Wazine to drink for 24 hours.

After you treat with Wazine you may want to follow up with a broad spectrum wormer such as Safeguard to get any other worms they may have as well.

Wazine dosage is one ounce per gallon of water. That is 2 tablespoons per gallon of water. It is administered for one day only and it must be their sole source of water to drink.
Put it out for your chickens to drink first thing in the morning before letting them out of the coop. Make sure you remove other waterers first.
Then when they go into the coop for the night, get rid of the treated water and provide them regular fresh water ready for the next morning. You're finished.
Then you reworm them again in 30 days.

Alright thank you! I talked with the sitter and she said that she would replace the water.

One more question, when can I start eating the eggs?

We eat eggs after using wazine, we're still alive. If you think you might be allergic or have a reaction to residue in the eggs, then feed them to your dog or toss them in the garbage for 14 days. Dont give them to anyone else nor sell them.
