INCUBATING w/FRIENDS! w/Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs No problem!

[Chaos18]

Thanks. Didnt see that.

Those numbers are for Standard LF. Smaller eggs will require higher humidity so that they don't lose to much.

not sure he posts all over the place, I had a few of his posts open they all said the same thing
dawgg ~fenbendazole 10% suspension liquid goat wormer, kills gapeworm too....3cc/ml per gallon of water. The fenbendazole paste equine wormer is "pea" size amount for each chicken.

Stop! Fenbendazole paste is not water soluble, it must be given orally!

It must be given orally, and the dose is *much* more than a pea size amount. A pea size amount has only 25 mg.

From left to right:
Small = 10mg ( .1cc) = enough for a 200 gram (7 ounce) bird at 50mg/kg
Medium = 25mg (.25cc) = enough for a 500 gram (17 ounce) bird at 50mg/kg
Large = 50mg ( .5cc) = enough for a 1000 gram (35 ounce) bird at 50mg/kg
50 mg/kg for 5 days is what my vets and other vets have recommended.



Everyone, I like Dawg53 a lot, but the recommendation of 3 cc in the water is unlikely to treat any worms. Same is true for the infamous "pea size" amount. A five pound hen should get ~115 mg, not 25 mg.




Capillary worms









This chick had 3 cc Safeguard in the water:


Those are roundworms, the easiest of all the worms to kill.

She read your thread I gave... I think so anyways???

it says on bread I think..

go back to my post its all there too.

I found your thread after about the pea sizes

oh I hope hatch goes well for these esp the one yer gone!!

Thank you!!!! Me too. The horrible hatch was the first one in the new Incuview bator. This will be the second. If it turns out bad, I will suspect this bator. But out of the 3 'bators I've had, 2 styrofoam, 1 plastic - the Incuview is holding temps and humidity better than the styrofoam ones

Hey there is nothing wrong with small peas!

Okay, so I put a pea sized amount of wormer in some water it and it dissolved pretty good, still a couple of small flakes that I couldn't break up but she's drinking it, hopefully she'll get enough in her that it will help and she'll want to eat more than meal worms and scraps from one of our chickens we're roasting tonight. I'll give her a bit more tomorrow maybe if I can tempt her to eat.

You need to give her 1.15 ml orally (4-5 pea size amounts), not in the water.
