Ivermectin injectable is my choice for externals see below, I am OCD with my gang never want to deal with them so we are on a tough preventative schedule.


Do 2 applications 4-6 weeks apart.

( Ivermectin 1%) liquid cattle wormer, brand name Eprinex is most often found. Chemical class is Ivermectin.


1.) 1/2 cc of the liquid topically on the skin for an adult chicken.
2.) 1/4 cc bantam
3.) 1 cc. for adult geese, put it between their wings.

when dosing think of it like applying frontline on a dog

Ivermectin pour on is ineffective against cecal and capillary worms and large roundworms are showing resistance in chickens. The reason is because more people use ivomec products as a miteacide rather than its primary purpose as a wormer in chickens. Worms have built resistance to ivomec products in chickens because of this, including eprinex. Ivomec products are still effective against mites in chickens.

Kath is that dosage correct from Celtic oaks, I have it written on my bottle down stairs and I am lazy
 
Quote: Iivermectin sold in feed stores is not water soluble, and 1/4 cc or 6/7 drop is a huge amount of ivermectin. Probably not toxic, but it's probably a good 5-10x the recommended amount.

There is a water soluble one for horses, but that's not sold in feed stores.

FWIW, I did an experiment with the injectable and verified that it floats. can do it again and take picture if anyone wants to see.
