hi ive just been out to the coop ,and i looked through a fresh dropping to check for worms ,and i found a bugger, { round worm )ive been using wormx for a wormer, but maybe not giving it to them as often as i should, so ive just ordered some flubenvet , hopefully that will get rid of them,, should i throw the eggs away that they have laid or will they be ok to eat,

also should i worm my 7 week old buffs that have been kept sperate to my layers??
 
I'm not 100% sure, but if you're medicating the chickens, I would think it best not to eat the eggs.
 
Check the paperwork with the medicine!
If it dont say anything you have 3 options:
1. eat the eggs
2. throw em out
3. call the manufacturer and ask
 
i havent give them the medication yet
but is it still ok to eat the eggs of a chicken that has worms
 
I'm not sure but it just would gross me out!
