De-Worming Med?

Diatamaceous Earth does both.

It does neither.

I use Diatamaceous Earth that I get from Tractor Supply. Make sure to get the food grade and mix some in with their feed. I also use it in my coop to control mites and lice.

If you are using DE to worm your chickens your chickens still have worms.

Have you had your birds poop tested before and after using DE to prove it worked?

A little bit of kayan pepper in there food or you can have garlic to there water but watch out the eggs will taste funky.

That article is about horses, I thought we were talking about chickens? I used to have poop on my chickens eggs which is a sign of worms, since using DE, no poop. So to me it's working.

Many things can cause poop on eggs. Only way to know for sure if something you are using is effective is to have before and after fecal tests done.

That is a myth.
Poop on eggs does not mean worms.
I am sorry, I know the article is about horses but it works the same for chickens.

Oh boy I hate to be the bearer of bad news today but this too is just hog wash.
Not true.
And I say this as a fan of both Cayenne pepper and garlic.
