I prefer Valbazen over Wazine or Strike III. Can also use ivomec but the Valbazen is really easy and effective.

Hay can you please give me the dosage of the cattle de wormer and how to administer it? I have 7 chickens, 3 dogs, and 3 cats that all seem in one way or another to have tape worms 
The dogs came up for them and I couldn't figure out the catalyst until I began reading the symptoms in chickens... and my cats hunt so always a good idea lol... I've only ever felt with worms in horses...

what is the dosage for chickens?
How Much Valbazen Should I Give My Chickens?
The recommended doses are:One-half cc/ml for standard size chickens;
One-quarter cc/ml for smaller chickens;
https://chickenandchicksinfo.com/valbazen-for-chickens/
The actual math for valbazen dose is:
bird weight in pounds / 2.2 X 20mg /113.6 = dose
So a 6 lb bird would get .48 ml (1 ml is the same as 1 cc).
For a standard sized bird most people just give .5 ml.
If you have a digital kitchen scale you can get weights easily. After a while you get pretty good at estimating weights. I have some larger birds (brahma's) and roosters, that I weigh to make sure I'm giving them enough.
It's pretty safe, if you end up with a fraction, just round up to the nearest easy dose to draw.
Make sure you shake the bottle really well before drawing, it settles out.
