Hi everyone,
A few weeks ago, I noticed some roundworms in my hens droppings, so I figured I should worm them again. The last time I did this was in spring, so it was probably time anyway. So I gave all of them except one their first dose nine days ago. I left out the one hen because I didn’t think it was a good idea to worm her yet, as she was, and still is, going through a super rough molt. So I’ll probably just worm her a bit later. The thing is, in the week and a half it’s been since I wormed them, two of them have started molting, pretty badly. Like one of them has almost no feathers and could probably win the molting contest this year…
So my question is, since I’ve already given them the first dose, should I give them the second as well, because it likely won’t hurt them any more? Or should I wait?
