how soon can you re-worm?

The Zimectrin Gold paste is in a syringe. You most likely can purchase either product at your local feed store or TSC. It should be in the equine section.

Yep, those are the packages for both dewormers that get tapeworms. Both are paste. The Z-Gold is orange colored, and not a very thick paste. I'm not sure about the other (consistency wise) as I've used it only on my horses...never a need to dose it onto my fingertip.

I usually actually try to buy it over Z-gold (for my horses) because it's got a higher % of active ingredients than Z-Gold. (it's a few bucks more usually, too) For chickens, I'm sure Z-Gold is plenty effective.

Dawg is right, you should be able to find one (or both) at a TSC, Atwoods, feed store/co-op...tack store, etc. It'll cost about $10-15, and should last for several dewormings unless you use it on a very large flock. Just stick the cap back on it, shove the syringe back in the box and keep it somewhere it won't freeze.
