What worms do you want to treat?

Anything that Panacur will treat, only because that is what I have. My ducks are having a very hard time keeping warm and I'm considering deworming to rule out those worms. BUT...I just felt their keels and they seem like a good weight to me, though I only have experience with how chickens feel. Now I don't know if I want to deworm without testing.

My latest veterinary textbook says something like "for routine deworming, give 20 mg/kg for five consecutive days".

20 mg/kg = ~0.91 ml per pound.

Thanks so much @casportpony
Deworming is not something I do often. I know the problems deworming too much can cause. Last time I dewormed my chickens was probably a decade ago.
