Safeguard dewormer for goats - any egg withdrawal period?

[dayleceo]

I use the safeguard dewormer for goats for my hens and I see mixed answers on whether there is an egg withdrawal period or not. Does anyone have any more information or has anyone used the product before? if Yes did you have an egg withdrawal period?

I usually do 3ml to 1 gallon of water for 5 days

You have to dose directly, by weight, it settles in water so it won't work that way.
I generally read 2 weeks.

Fenbendazole is dosed by weight, the liquid Goat dewormer will settle out of water so it may not be as effective in water as by giving it to each bird orally be weight.

Withdrawal period for Fenbendazole is 14 days after the last dosage.

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