Oh man, that stinks. I have no clue how they could have gotten tapeworms! The are mostly free range in my sunny backyard. There aren't puddles to speak of almost ever. Their coop and inside runs get cleaned regularly. Fresh water etc. The only thing I can think of is my one not so bright, but real pretty girl likes to sit on the feeder and poo in it. We change it constantly, but somehow, even hanging-- she finds her way on the feeder. But then she would have had to have tapeworms to give it... so back to the conundrum.
I'll keep after it till they are clear... but does this mean I have to hold off on introducing my two young girls? I was planning on starting that tomorrow... but I certainly don't want them getting tapeworm!
Also-- do you think my dog is at risk for getting them? Or even worse... can my family? Or are they species specific?
Thanks for the info!
