These are premeasured capsules for hens 4-7lbs so no guessing. Its fenbendazole. The same as safeguard.

Be aware: Neither product will treat nor eliminate poultry tapeworms even though the liquid goat wormer contains 100 mg/ml vs 6.7mg Poultry Dewormer 5x.
Equimax or Zimectrin Gold equine paste will take care of tapeworms.

Oh, I understand where youre coming from, but the instructions for Valbazen and safeguard are clear, basic math, I hope most people aren't guessing.
20 capsules for $32 (including s&h). The page doesn't say if it needs a follow-up dose, most fenbendazole products need a second dose in 10 days.
It also says it treats tapeworms, which is odd because fenbendazole typically won't work on tapes.
Buying Valbazen or safeguard is the better buy for me, personally, and likely for anyone that has more than 10 birds.

So it's just a low dose "preventative". What a con.
