hello! Check them in a day or two. Not sure where ur questions r at
good doggie!

she is a good doggie. She will be 10 in December and we found out, even though she's not to friendly with other dogs or cats, she has been amazing with our chicks and duck. She chases the mice away from the pins and goes to check on our ones that are about to transition to their outside pin (we have 3 stages of life inside the house and 2 outside).

You sure they were worms and not maggots? If the poop was old, as in a day or two old, they might not have been poultry worms, 'cause i don't think poultry worms survive very long outside the host, but I need to research that to be sure.

I thought your a pro

Hi All!

I have a building I use as a 4 way coop.  2 bottom shelves have outdoor access, and 2 top shelves do not.  I recently reorganized and moved all the babies out of the top 2 shelves.  I didn't clean them right away.  It's been about 2 1/2 weeks since I emptied the birds, and as I tried to clean it this morning.I took out the bricks that had been holding the water containers.  The hay and poo that was behind the brick was still a little damp - I had knocked over the water container when I was catching the babies to move them.  I found small, thin, white worms crawling around in the poo.  

I spent the day looking at fresh poo - no sign of worms.  The bulk of the babies that I took out of that coop are in the mobile pen I moved over to a friend's house.  I've been keeping an eye on those chicks since I only get over there twice a day - I have seen no signs of worms.  The poo was a little runny the first couple of days, considering the move and the heat wave we've been going through.  But, the last week or so, it's been normal.

So, do I de-worm all the chickens, or do I just add some ACV to the water?  Just because it was in an empty coop, does that mean the chickens are infested?

Thanks!!!

Worms are always found in chicken, we,as chicken owners, need yo keep the LOAD of them low as possible! And that by acting in 2 levels
A. The most important one, is PREVENTING by good management and using ACV, hot peppers, ect ect.
B. When the load become to heavy you need to treat with antihelmintic substance
And I think that if you have seen them by naked eye( assuming they aren't something else ) it is the time to take out the heavy canons!

Im so excited! I just checked my eggs that we put in around the 8th, all have good veining and the one that was put in on the 8th has BIG veins. And is moving very well. That one might hatch sooner than the 21 days like Little Leo did. Oh the perks of having bantams.
