Yeah I figured that’s how one of them got the bugs she’s always out and about wanting to check out what wild birds are doing :lol: Thankfully I think it’s just her who got infected but sprayed everyone just in case but thanks now I remember the days!

I know how much of the stuff to use per water amount but I forgot how often you spray I already sprayed today since some of my chickens got lice again so when do I spray again??? Is it 7 days from now or am I wrong :confused:

Well folks already put the food out they looked like they didn’t eat much though but I’m sure it much rather works on an empty stomach than one with food.. I’ll just try next weekend and see

We weren’t able to get everything yesterday so today will do.. they haven’t eaten anything since last night if I was to get the stuff soon would I still be able to do it? It’s 10:00 am now..

Will do! I’ll try waking up early as I can :lol: so after the 3hr mark I just give em a bit of food at a time?

Also when using equimax should I fast my chickens? If so how long? Also by fasting does that just mean no layer feed? Or can’t they not eat grass etc in my yard either? And is water still ok for them?

Dang that’s pretty terrible! Thankfully it’s seemed to work for getting rid of rounds on my one hen but I’m gonna get something else for tapes

Good point on that! I use purina oyster strong and that stuffs pretty good layer feed for us

Figured! Although I’m sure it does at least help boost the immune system unless that’s a lie too!

So I’ve already settled that I’m going to be getting equimax to deworm my flock of tapes but I have some other questions about worming chickens that I wonder about... I keep seeing websites saying ACV and garlic gets rid of worms but is this just a wives tale? Or does it really work? :idunno

Thanks for the help! I’ll be sure to try all the methods although I’m sure the finger trick will do with mine

Ok! Thanks how do I give the pea sized amount to them then? Do I put it on food and feed them it or do I do something else?

Ok so just use the wormer5x for roundworms and equine paste for tapes then?

I also looked at valbazen and that stuffs quite over our budget but I’m reading it works for lots of people but does the paste work just as good?

Ok I’ll try to get that, you said it treats tapes but can it treat roundworms too? It’s fine if it doesn’t but just curious
