    Deworming with Zimerecterin gold, questions

    I had a hen die last week, and the necropsy results revealed she had an abundant tapeworm infestation. No worms or eggs were noted in the gross pathology, but there were 50+ eggs reported in the fecal float. I have never seen any worm segments or eggs in their poop (I have been checking every...

    Tapeworm Hasn’t Gone Away After Worming

    I noticed small yellow worm-like things in my chicken’s poop probably around a month ago now, only found out it was tapeworm about two weeks ago. When I first noticed these I had already wormed her recently with Aviverm and I tried Aviverm again and it didn’t work. I then got Flubenol 5% and...

    Tapeworm Treatments?

    I noticed that my hens' poo has tapeworms in it :( and was wondering about a few dewormers, which I have researched.... Ivermectin Does it treat/help with tapeworms? Some sources said Ivermectin did not treat tapeworms. Will it affect my few currently molting hens? Safe-guard (Fenbendazole)...

    Tapeworm

    Hi. My chicken has been recently been treated for tapeworm, maybe a month ago, and today he had tape segments in his poop again. I wormed him using worm out gel 50ml and that worked.

    Treating for worms, and egg withdrawal

    I’ve been keeping chickens for ten years or so, and I’ve never had to medicate for any reason. A couple of months ago, I bought five backyard hens from someone local, and after a few days, I noticed their fluffy butts were a bit poopy. After reading various posts on a FB chicken health group, I...

    Moxidextrin/Praziquantel (Quest-Plus) for tapeworms?

    Is anybody familiar with the use of this product, Quest-Plus Equine Gel, to worm their chickens? The Farmers Coop didn't carry the Equimax that I was recommended. Wondering if anyone knows the dosing for chickens, is it the same as with the Equimax? It does still have praziquantel in it but...
