Chickens have worms

[chickgma]

Safeguard is dosed by weight. "Pea Size" is just guessing really and a lot of times under dosing.
Safeguard dose is 0.23ml per pound of weight. Give once, then repeat in 10 days to treat Roundworms only. To treat other types of worms including roundworms, but not tapeworms, give orally once a day for 5 days.

There's really no way to know what type of worm it was without seeing photos of it.

I'm sorry I don't.
You may want to order the Safeguard paste or liquid instead.

So I got up and I was told my mom cleaned out the chicken's coop and she said she saw only 1 white worm in the poop. I was sleeping so I couldn't see it but here's the thing so I actually just treated them for worms for gape worms bc around this time of year my last flock had it, and one of my chickens was opening her mouth wide and I got paranoid. So I wanted to be safe and they just finished their treatment yesterday on Monday.

I treated them with SafeGuard equine dewormer (fenbendazole)
on a piece of bread for five days straight I put maybe like an amount up to the first line on your finger.
I only have two chickens and idk which one has the worms and I don't know what to do now. I don't have electrolytes, I don't have a separate place to put them either.
.


I just asked her what the worm looked like and she said it was white small and skinny idk if that helps.

stop the bread!!!! it impacts the crop!!!!!!!!
