Get a tube, 18 French, and some 35ml or 60ml syringes and some baby bird food. She should have no problem digesting that.

Safeguard/Panacur (fenbendazole 10%) liquid or paste. You can find it in any feed store in the horse, cattle/goat section. It's used in sick kittens, puppies, foals, pregnant mares, reptiles all avian species and all other mammals.

I dose 50mg/kg by mouth and repeat in 10 days. Warning - Safeguard/Panacur should not be used during a molt.

Yes, which is why I always worm mine when they look off.

So she has been wormed...
Water is doing her no justice today
I'm sryinging in apple sauce & egg at this point.. 10 cc x2 today 10 30 am right now

She is struggling though... Laboured breath...

Funny thing her coulor is still good& she has moments of up walking around awareness...

 

[JacP]

I'm totally scared to do it!!

 

[JacP]

Ill never not worm or count on organic again!!
I try to be as natural as possible.. De/pumpkin ect...

More proof that so called organic wormers dont work...lesson learned.
There are certain types of worms that eprinex wont kill. I recommend the safeguard that Casportpony mentioned. The safeguard will take care of them.

I think it might be a day or two depending on how many. One thing that is fact: regardless of what the trendy cult of green states, there is no better way to prevent and rid worms using DE, chili peppers, ACV, or any other goofy recommendations. Praziquantel, Albendazole, Oxfendazole do the job no others can. I hope for your hen to have a speedy recovery.
