Ok thank you Dragonlady!

So with 11 week old chicks that have never been wormed, should I use valbazan?

To be safe I would worm with Wazine in water first. i TEASPOON per gallon.They are probably full of round worms. Wait 2 weeks, and use the Valbazan or Safeguard. If they are Orp LF chicks , use 1/2 cc each, down their throat, at that age. Repeat every 2 weeks until 4 months old.

I use DE in their feed, it's all natural.

Hi, This is my very first BO, She should be a she

and she is around 3 weeks old. I ordered her from Ideal hatchery so I hope she is a pure BO, what does everyone think?? BTW her color is most like the first pic, for some reason the other 2 pics she looks lighter.

Once DE is wet it is useless against worms. Please use the wazine and valbazine for the life and health of your birds.

I will look for it when I go to the feed store, Thanks

I ordered 25 pullets from Ideal and I got 25 pullets. They are good at sexing.
But you will not get pure from a hatchery. Some of mine had brown spots on their tail feathers, but nice girls, and nice eggs. I have no complaints.

It's in the water now. But I picked up four more birds while I was at the farm store. Ha
