I was in the run this morning when I noticed a fresh poop that had red in it. Grabbed a stick, poked around, and there appeared to be a fat red worm in the poop. This is the first time I have seen something like this, and they are all acting lively and happy so I imagine if it's worms it's not too bad yet.
So today I am going to he feed store to buy something to take care of this quickly. My chickens will be laying any day, and I was just thinking about butchering some of the birds this weekend. I also have some month old ducks in the run with the chickens.
My questions-
What is the best way to treat a 25 bird flock?
Can the ducks be treated the same way?
How long will I have to wait after treatment to eat the meat birds?
How long do you wait to eat the eggs after treatments?
Thank you in advance for your help. This is my first time experiencing this. Not happy.
