Best chicken dewormers?

[Fluffy Lambs]

Right now I am doing Ivermectin and safe guard goat wormer. Is there anything else I should be using? I read worms could build a resistance to Ivermectin very quickly. Thanks for any help!

Alternate between the two, every 6 months....Ivermectin the first six months, second 6 months Safeguard. Keeps the worms and their eggs from building up a resistance to just one drug.

I dont recommend Ivermectin at all. It is showing worm resistance from my experience. Besides, it has a long withdrawal period.
Stick with the benzimidazoles; Safeguard and Valbazen. I've been using both for many years and they are very effective eliminating worms.

Thank you! Is there a withdrawal period for Valbazen?

Thank you! Is there a withdrawal period for Valbazen?

Generally, there's a 2 week withdrawal period after the last dosing. We eat the eggs after using Valbazen or Safeguard.
Benzimidazoles arnt well absorbed and mostly excreted. That said, if you suspect that you or a family member might have a reaction to the minute residue in the eggs, by all means discard the eggs in the garbage.

Thanks a million!
