Can anyone right offhand tell me the amount of Safeguard liquid wormer to administer to my large fowl

What worms do you want to treat for? If you want to treat for just large roundworms and cecal worms the dose my vet told me to use is 0.23ml per pound once and repeat in 10 days, but to treat for other worms, like gapeworms and capillary worms, the dose is 0.23ml per pound for *5* consecutive days.

My small banties get 0.25ml (1/4 cc)
My large Banties get 0.5ml (1/2 cc)
My small standard sized hens get 1ml (1cc)
My medium  hens get 1.25ml
My large hens get 1.5ml
My x-large hens get 2ml

casportpony, You are the best! You always give accurate information and always respond to those in need. Thank you!

Thank you Kathy, took a scene shot of it this time so I will know in 10 days what I need to give. Thanks again, your the best!

Thank Red & Danna for helping out with the wormer info.

I don't like to sleep too hot but I don't want my nose hairs frosting over either. Lol

well, while your at it Kathy , does egg sizing go by weight ? and would it be before they lose any moisture ?

 

[Dannachic]

Sorry danna. Didn't know you'd already answered. Wonder if I should worm them again because I gave the bantys one quarter and large one half? I did repeat in 10 days.

i don't know red..someone on here will let you know..i may have gave the wrong dose..

Not sure I know what you mean... It's been my experience that banties lay small eggs, but some of my biggest eggs have been from 4 pound leghorns, even bigger than eggs from a Giant Cochin. Peahens, they lay huge eggs, lol.

So my chicken fam....

As I'm doing laundry, washing all my dusty office clothes, hoping behind hope that I get a call for an interview...

I put my hat into the ring for an admin job at an investment company round these parts.

Guys, can I please get all the good thoughts and hopes and vibes and prayers if you swing that way? Let's face it, I am seriously under-employed as a retail monkey, and it would be beyond fabulous to have full time hours and pay.....I'm getting so stressed out with the finances due to my hubs being stupid with his projects....and I feel like our marriage is just...not in a happy place with that...

Good luck Star with the job & will continue to pray for you & dh issues. Sending & prayers
