In the UK Safeguard can be used without egg withdrawal when it's given at a very low dose (1 mg/kg) for 6-7 days I think. In Canada Wazine is used with zero egg withdrawal. How many hens do you want to treat?Thanks for your reply!
I definitely want to get roundworms, since I know they were in my flock, but I figure as long as I'm at it I'd use the stronger dosage and longer dosing time to try to fight as broad a spectrum as possible. I haven't seen any worms in their poop, but the necropsy did identify roundworms (only roundworms) in one hen a few weeks ago.
Edited to add: The 1 mg/kg dose treats only large roundworms and cecal worms and should not be given if you have capillary worms.
