    Treating Tapeworms - Under Construction

    Withholding food in the morning - chickens are hungry and so are the tapeworms, I do it in the morning and hold food for two hours and re introduce food slowly so they don’t over eat causing impacted crop etc. you want the tapes to get the med and if there is other food then less of an impact.

    Treating Tapeworms - Under Construction

    I know mine are from either worms or crickets. The person who lived in my house before had worm farms everywhere and crickets come out but the 100 every day. It’s insane.

    I can see this is lash material but next steps?

    I am so sorry for your loss. No one tells you how hard it is to lose them. I think we just have to know we love them and give them a best life possible . Doesn’t make it easier especially when they are our favorites and we are close with them. Thank you for sharing this with me.

    Treating Tapeworms - Under Construction

    Does anyone know how to keep the infects away? I have dogs chickens and ducks but oh my world do I have crickets, earthworms and flies. I can’t keep battling tapeworm like this. Do I move the coop and run to another location while treating? I use pine chips but I’d like to be ahead this year as...

    Thank you for this information. I will keep her going as long as i can. She is my baby and is now a house chicken. She does love it so as much as i can keep her happy I will. There is a hormone I can or her on but will compromise her liver and kidneys apparently so I’ll dig some more on that.

    I have a previous thread on this hen but I can’t seem to find it. A few months ago she stared laying just yolks followed by soft shell material. That went on until about 2 weeks ago after second round of antibiotics. Vet had me start calcium bicarbonate at .2 ml daily then no more yolk or...

    Update. Back to normal. She laid an egg that following morning then skippied a day then a softer egg but shelled and found the remnants just thin. I have been watching her eat oyster shell and giving eggshells back. Might hit them with scrambled eggs today but they don’t seem interested in...

    It’s been 100 here with massive smoke. I’m in the middle of 12 fires in Colorado. It was warm. They always had shade, a pool, fresh water and sprinklers. She was playing the the water right before it happened.

    Duck was fine and all of a sudden collapsed and can’t walk. Please help.

    Update: Hit her hard with molasses to detox as we had no charcoal left. 3ml poultry cell and electrolytes. She saw the grit and literally crawled to it and went nuts then the same with the oyster shell. She started looking for food so we gave her a few pellets in water and she started to perk...
