Deworming......?

I hear Ivermectrin. Are we talking the paste you give to horses? Mix it with their food? How much?

Have you seen worms in the poo? I would use Wazine in the waterers. You can get it at the feed store

no but ive never wormed my birds so i figured itd be a good idea

dont deworm them unless there are problems. Some people never have to ever deworm them. If there are now worms, and the birds dont look sick than do not deworm them

In 3 yrs I have never wormed with meds. I used natural precautionary measures like crushed red pepper in feed, DE, pumpkin seeds. I just recently wormed them with Wazine because someone that bought chickens from me said that one had worms, I was mortified!!! I just didn't want people to think that my chickens were sick and gross, but on the other hand they eat off the ground, so it's natural for them to get worms.

what are the side effects of using Wazine? Any?
