    Dewormer question - Fenbendazole - or alternatives

    Hi all we treated our flock of 7 after seeing white specks of what looked like worms in their poop. It seemed to do well but one still has it. The small dose “Chicken” bottle is quite pricey compared to the same larger ones for goats. Can anyone recommend the dose or maybe a better alternative...

    Lethargic Chickens

    Hi everyone. It’s been a while since I’ve needed to post here. Last week my 4 year old chicken died. Her crop wasn’t impacted. She had a slightly poopy butt no real signs of other illness.

    Chicken with worms

    So a few days ago I noticed one of my chickens seemed a bit off but I chalked it up to it being an unusually hot day.

    Is this a worm???

    I cracked an egg this morning and found this inside the white of the egg. Is this a worm? All poops are and have been normal and healthy looking. No sign of worms in their poops at all.

    Quick question!

    Hello all, I recently got a chicken that is very active and eats a lot but I saw that she has pooped brown runny poop sometimes and just now she pooped about 3-inch white worms, I'm putting diatomaceous earth in her food. Would this be good enough or should I do more?
