hello everyone!
I need some advice because I've been reading so much info , I've become overwhelmed. I have two hens( one Plymouth and one leg horn) that I dewormed 10 days ago using safe-guard (fenbendazole) because I believed they had tape worm or at least my Plymouth did. I had read several articles and went with the safe guard because it was suppose to be easy and kill tape worms. I did not see any worms in poo until today. my Plymouth has tape worm. now is this normal that ten days later , they would come out? or does that mean the worms are getting worse? I originally looked up why she was starting to have diarrhea and read that if no other symptoms presented themselves it was more than likely tape worm ( or worms). this is the first I've actually seen the "rice" and yes, it moved! I got on here after seeing this and have found articles stating that I should have used something different then safeguard because this doesn't actually kill tape worms! I would appreciate any advice.
