Help with Identify these worms

[dawg53]

Do you know how much of the safe-guard I'm to give my hen. I bought the paste 10%. 100mg/g.

Good. Give her a "pea" size amount orally. Repeat dosing her again in 10 days, same amount. There's a 14 day wihdrawal period after last dosing.

I give my poulty 50mg/kg once by mouth and repeat in ten days. Does that help?

Does that work out to be .05ml or .05 cc?

Sorry I didn't originally see your post. thanks for your help.

1ml = 1cc. If you had the liquid Safeguard, 50mg/kg would equal .5cc/kg (1/2cc/kg). To me, the 25 gram tube of paste looks like it's about 25cc's, so maybe 1 gram of paste = 1cc = 100mg? I'll have to figure that one out.

I gave my chickens .5cc each. I was just looking at one of my hens poop and it looks like she past a tapeworm segment.

If you're thinking tapes, I don't think Safegard will clear them. Valbazen will. You can do the search for dosing and repeat dosing. Good luck!

Praziquantil also gets tapes.

Zimectrin Gold equine paste wormer will get tapes. Dosage is the same as the Safeguard equine paste, a "pea" size amount given orally, repeat dosing again in 10 days.
