    Ivermectin for both Sheep and Chickens?

    I’ve tried to find info on this but it’s confusing. I’m hoping to use the pour-on or oral ivermectin to treat for a bad case of scaly leg mites and possibly deworm. My sheep may also need to be dewormed, but from what I can tell the ivermectin for cattle is not approved for sheep. Since...

    Equimax Horse Dewormer for Roundworms??

    I’ve used the Equimax for treating tapeworms (which worked great by the way) and was wondering if it would be as effective for roundworms? It’s been wet and muddy for a while, and I saw one roundworm, in a hen’s feces. I’ve used straight up ivermectin before for roundworms….But I was...

    We have mites...again....😭😭

    So we started treating mites 3-4 weeks ago. First we treated with permethrin for a week or 2 then switched to ivermectin for 2 weeks. We cleaned the coop out and sprayed it down each time we treated the birds. I double and triple checked the dosages and concentrations we used. We checked last...

    Earlier this week we had to cull the smallest chicken, who had become extremely lethargic, runny liquid poop, feathers ruffled, not moving at all and not eating. He was my daughter’s favourite chicken and she was terribly affected by the loss. The little cockerel was a pet to her. That left us...

    Odd bald spot with an odor on my hen

    I have a hen who is definitely getting up in years now. I've had her 6 years, she was full grown when I got her. Anyway, she still is very active and spunky normally. I recently dealt with 2 problems simultaneously with her. We had a Northern fowl mite infestation which I treated with warm baths...

    Indian runner hoarse voice/losing voice

    Hi everybody, I'm turning to you in the hope for some advice/help. At the beginning of January, I noticed that my 7-year-old runner duck Imma couldn't quack as loud as she used to but sounded hoars. A week later she started what I would say is sneezing - so I gave her VetRx. I was worried...

    The Ivermectin Thread!

    In this thread, we will discuss the use of ivermectin both in treatment of our chickens for things like mites, and its possible use against COVID. I don’t want to take any position on ivermectin except as an excellent anti parasitic medication for cattle, pigs, chickens, and more. One of the...

    Hen has blue comb and respiratory probs!

    I have a 1.5 year old leghorn that has been acting odd and I can’t figure out what to do next. On 6/23, I saw her extending her neck and gasping twice and then her behavior returned to normal, so I just assumed she had something stuck in her throat and she cleared it. On 6/24, she began...

    Ivermectin for ducks and where to buy?!?

    I've read a lot about giving ducks ivermectin for gapeworms and giving it to them orally but all I can find online is injectable, pour on, and paste. If anyone can help me get in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it.

    Can someone confirm if this is scaly leg mites?

    Hi everyone! Hope everyone is well. Over the past year I've noticed my dominique hen named Sugar slowing down. She's about six years old. She is having a harder time keeping up with the flock and scratching for bugs. I thought she was just getting arthritis but now I'm convinced that most of her...

    Ivermectin with duck

    So I got oral ivermectin and gave a dose to my sweet runner. She had more maggots this morning than last night. About when should I be expecting the maggots to die? And I read that I need to give another dose in 10 days. Should I also be adding sea salt to her soaks?
