I found worms - now what?

[keqm2025]

Hi all. I found worms in my chicken’s coop this morning. I’m new to raising chickens! There are only two hens that stay in this coop, and one has been laying sporadically so I’m assuming it’s her (both are around a yr and a half old). I know I need to worm them, but what do I use? I’m seeing a lot of mixed advice from a simple google search. I’d appreciate any advice/suggestions!

Thanks!

Thank you so much!! Are you able to tell what kind of worm? I thought they look like roundworms based on my research but I’m not certain. Are the eggs they’ve been laying recently ok to eat still?

Would this be undiluted liquid goat wormer? Orally via syringe, or put in drinking water?

Undiluted, oral only. It is not miscible in water.
