I just wanted to give an update on that lady. I gave everyone the 5 day safeguard mash, and that solved my problem. I specifically gave her a full dose by mouth, the 2 times, as directed. She did recover all the way and is all better now. So I just wanted to mention, it had to be the worms, and...
Hi! I have a question to anyone who may understand the dosing of Safeguard.
So, I see that the dose can be .23 ml per pound of bird, for 1, 3, or 5 days depending on the type of worm. And again 10-14 days later, unless a 5 day dose was given.

Hi, I just wanted to give an update for this thread. Hopefully it can be helpful for someone!
I just finished my 5 day mash Safeguard dose today. At this point, I noticed the poos have gotten more firm. There were a lot of loose and runny ones before. Now they are basically all back to firm...

I also get many many normal poops. I should also mention they can potentially eat cherry leaves and mimosa leaves, but I haven't physically seen them eat either of those...but they could. They favor the plum, plout, nectarine, and apricot leaves.
Thank you Wyorp Rock! That was so much good info to work off of!

Hello,
I have several questions. Back at the end of August I saw worms in 1 of my chicken's poop. I don't know which chicken. I have 72 chickens total. A bantam coop and a standard coop. I also got chicken mites at that time and decided to use ivermectin. I gave it to them twice, 10 days apart...
