Guess I made my question as clear as mud hey? I should of asked. Has anyone that ever wormed a chicken that had worms found any DEAD worms in the eggs? I know the chance would be slim but ??? Just curious.

I bet the person found that this roundworm in this egg turned around and wormed his chickens lol.[URL]https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/uploads/19157_59_roundwormsineggs.jpg[/URL]

Aw gross!

The woman at the feed store told me when I bought my wazine that some of the worms could get flushed into the eggs.

Well, since its so very hot, and my 5 older hens arent laying very many eggs, and my babies are 7 wk old, NOW would be a good time to worm my chickens. Can someone point me in the right direction, post a link for instructions???
Do you worm the babies?
thank you!

Has anyone used ivermectin to worm with and if so, do you have a breakdown of the dosage ?

OMG That is discusting !!! That's exactly what I would not want to find, dead or alive !!! Just wondering if you worm them and the worm dies is there a greater chance of it coming out in the egg or no?

Makes you wonder if there are ever the worm eggs in the eggs !!! LOL So small that you can't see them??? LOL

was reading another post earlier about worming I thought Stupidly that since I lived in an semi arid climate that perhaps I wouldn't have to worry, but now reading aubrenoramarie's I guess i will have to do it once a year. Reno gets more rain than we do in Big Bear but other than that, were close in other areas. Dang. dang, dang it all.

Now you are really freaking me out !!!!

So did your hens show signs or did you just find the worms in the eggs one day ???? Please elaborate !!!! I want to lose sleep tonight !!!!!

I'm hoping that you living where you live has something to do with it !!!!

I am in NE WI and summers are very short up here.
