Was this supposed to go on this thread? I think you've done a little post hopping and posted on mine :).
But to answer your question, I don't think it would hurt them. I've wormed all my chickens for other worms with Safeguard and they were all fine afterward (the safeguard even killed a few...

So I have a flock of 15 chickens at my house. Some of them (if not all of them) have tapeworms. We have treated them with SafeGuard Liquid Goat Dewormer and Diatomaceous Earth for the tapes and Corid for what we think is coccidiosis in a...
