    Two more days of Safeguard. Flu seems better just dragging butt especially in the afternoon. Thank God for the sun and warmer temps now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How long do I hold eggs before incubating after dosing with SG? Feels like we've thrown away more eggs than I can count...

    Safeguard and Feather Damage While Molting

    I hope you feel better soon! This is round two in less than 6 weeks for both hubby and I. It's unlike any other flu I've ever had. And he NEVER gets sick. Something in the air..................... It's dangerous and one to take very good care of. I hope it's nothing that can be transferred from...

    Safeguard and Feather Damage While Molting

    Time for day 10 followup with Safeguard. I have the girls on ACV and garlic, gave them yogurt with probiotics etc. Is there any way to bypass the 10 day followup and/or will followup with Eprinex work in it's place? I have the feeling I know the answer. We've all had the flu here so trying to...

    Safeguard and Feather Damage While Molting

    I'm in trouble if it's true lol. I thought .........what the heck!!! My older birds did a very soft molt in the Fall and now some of the one year olds are doing a heavy molt! I've never even seen a heavy molt. Gone over in my noggin.............what is missing from diet? Nope, high protein etc...

    Safeguard and Feather Damage While Molting

    Yep, you're both right. And I still haven't learned how to use the multi quote button right *sigh* I've been experimenting with Oxine Ah. It has some good and some odd. I fog the coops a few evenings a week. The good: I had a baby chick (Silkie) that fell in the water, marbles and all yet still...

    Safeguard and Feather Damage While Molting

    Ks, there's where I keep running into issues. We all want our birds to be safe and there are sooooooooooooooo many posts on BYC it's an all day venture to find correct info at times. Wouldn't it be awesome if those posts could be deleted when they're either a typo or harmful things!? All in...

    Safeguard and Feather Damage While Molting

    Seriously if the weather would just shout out some sunshine and heat it would seem so much easier LOL. I did the math and you're right. I'll be picking up another bottle of safeguard this week to boot. I know you said dogs can't get the junk from chickens but can't the chickens get it easily...

    Safeguard and Feather Damage While Molting

    Thank you Kathy. I'm switching over all my flock and some are barnyard mixes. Others are Bielefelders, BO, CW, AW, BR, AM, and the list goes on. Slowly selling off my layers that are not going to be purebreds.....I think from what you wrote I got the dose close but maybe a bit much for the...

    Safeguard and Feather Damage While Molting

    Wow, thank you all so much. I wanted to be sure I did this right and so much conflicting info out there. I started dosing them yesterday.............0.25 for batams and babies, 0.50cc normal, and so on............. Hope I did that part right

    Safeguard and Feather Damage While Molting

    Another Safeguard question. Sorry ya'll wanting to get this over with. I saw where a member posted we could use 3 CC per gallon of drinking water as long as it was the only water available. Will this work for the last 4 days? I'm home all day so could mix small batches of water. Just totally...

    Safeguard and Feather Damage While Molting

    RE: Safeguard and 8 week old babies. They are in the coop next to the adults. Should I dose them too and if so, how much and for how long? Seems one day would be enough and ensure there's been no exchange of any critters through the coop nets...

    Safeguard and Feather Damage While Molting

    Thank you Great info in one place:) I have the info on Eprinex etc but had heck finding the length of dosage for the SG! The dogs, I came across that on another thread and was sooooooooooooooooooo grateful! 4 dogs and one cat.......our vet charges an arm and leg for worm meds...........TS has...

    Safeguard and Feather Damage While Molting

    Thank you. That totally makes sense but the Safeguard covers the gapeworms and tapeworms where Eprinex doesn't from my understanding. Also thinking of using SG on my dogs, they eat chicken poop vice versa. I just don't know how many days in a row to give the safeguard...........and if the...

    Safeguard and Feather Damage While Molting

    Totally confused now. Safeguard by mouth: 1/4cc small birds-1cc for giants yet for how many days? I've seen anywhere from 1-5 days............And then repeat in 10? Thanks again
