hi all! i have some questions regarding SafeGuard dewormer.
my duck Reptar was recently dewormed, and she received her last dose on the 9th. i've read in some places that the withdrawal egg period is 14 days, but other sources say there is no withdrawal period at all. is the withdrawal period dose dependent? i figured maybe AquaSol has little to no withdrawal period, but Reptar was given 20mg/kg(specifically 0.23ml) doses of SafeGuard equine 10% paste. are the eggs not safe til 14 days post-treatment for human consumption? if not, can they be given to dogs or should they just be chucked? help would be greatly appreciated! :)

Two weeks is what most people say. Me, personally, I eat them :oops:

as long as you're not dead yet, that's all i need to hear lol. i hate the idea of tossing all those eggs(especially since my two other ducks share a nest with her and lay identical eggs, thus making them all suspect)and i've been trying to find any reason to keep them around. i'm thinking i'll process and cook all of the duck eggs i've collected since the 9th into a big batch of scrambled eggs and freeze it into portions for the dogs. i figure the amount of medicine will be dilute enough at that point to have a negligible effect. thanks for the input! :D
