I would like deworm my flock of twenty chickens, but I don't want to have to do each chicken individually. I read that I could use Safeguard in their water, but I need to know the withdrawal time, if there is one.

This worked perfect for me - my husband took them off the roost, I put the medicine down the side of their throat, and… NEXTYou can't put it in their water as you can't control the dose that way. You can take them off the roost at night and dose them.
I just want to point out that even if the medication is 100% effective, and kills every single worm and egg in the bird, there will always be thousands of eggs already in the environment.If one worm or worm egg survives the treatment, you'll have to start over, and then it'll be even more inconvenient.
That doesn't actually work.if you want to go a non medicated route may i suggest pumpkin seeds or sprinkling garlic in their food?
