Hi All,
I am in the process of worming my flock and got these good pictures of roundworm that I thought I'd share. I'm using Wazine at a dose of 2 Tablespoons per gallon and this is what one of the chickens expelled. I decided to worm them because 2 were having chronic diarrhea for the past several days. No other symptoms or signs of illness, just runny poo so I figured it was worms. The last time I wormed them was in late August/early September and at that time, I used Z-Gold because I suspected tapeworm. The next time I worm, I'll rotate to another broad spectrum (tape, cecal, etc.) wormer to avoid worm resistance to the meds.
Anyway, just sharing, in case these pics help others.
