Hello. I have a flock I'm trying to treat for scaly leg mites, and the Vaseline method has not been feasible for me, so I want to try the pour-on ivermectin method.
However, these chickens have not been wormed. I saw someone saying that giving ivermectin to chickens who have a high worm burden could cause dangerous effects as the worms die. Is there truth to this? Do I need to deworm before I use the ivermectin?
