What is the dosage for fenbendazole?

[casportpony]

One is a Broad Breasted White hen, I believe we have a male and female Red Bourbon turkeys, and I believe the man we got the last male and female from said that the male might be a Nargasett turkey so I'm assuming the female would be too but I'm not exactly sure what breed they are.

I have no idea what they weigh.

Thank you.

Are they pets or food?

@casportpony ....I think I have the dosages down for small flock of 20, but can't find much on egg withdrawal time for the SafeGuard goat wormer. I have seen some that say no withdrawal for eggs and some that say 24 days. Can you clarify?

I don't worry about it, I eat them, lol, but I think most people say 14 days?

If I buy the Safe-Guard Equine paste do I use a pea size per chicken?
If I buy the Safe-Guard Goat liquid how much do I give?

How quick will I see results? I have a Barred Rock that looks like she is suffering from Gape Worms

Kathy,

I believe in one of your past posts you mention you give Safe-Guard 10% liquid or paste to your average-sized hen at 1.2mL per hen. Do you give this "straight" (meaning straight out of bottle or tube, not mixing with water first)? I have seen so many different suggestions online that I am becoming confused about this.

Like momchick4's last post to this thread, I have Safe-Guard for Goats (Suspension 10%) and would like to treat 1 hen for possible gapeworm.

Thank you very much in advance for your suggestion!

If you give liquid or paste at 0.23 ml per pound undiluted orally for five consecutive days, that dose will treat large roundworms, cecal worms, capillary worms, gapeworms, and *possibly* some species of tapeworms... Actually, I think it will treat all but flukes and tapes. Does that help?

Ignore the bottle, that's the amount goats get. Birds, cats, and dogs get much more per pound than goats, sheep, cattle, and horses.
