Ivermectin paste fire chicken with worms

[Tinabuglaw]

I have a chicken and I think she has worms. Her poop is light yellow. She has not eaten or drank on her own in several days. I'm feeding her through a syringe. I'm giving her yogurt and ACV.

DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TOO DOSE THE PASTE? THAT'S ALL I HAVE.

@Eggcessive @Wyorp Rock or @azygous should be able to help.

Good luck.

Can you post some photos of her and her poop?
When is the last time she laid an egg?
How old is she?


Ivermectin may treat Roundworms. I would investigate a bit more as well...check to make sure her crop is emptying overnight, feel her abdomen for bloat or fluid and look for lice/mites.

Do you have Ivermectin Paste ONLY or is it something like like Equimax or Zimectrin which contains Ivermectin and Praziquantel

She's 2 years old, she hasn't laid and egg in days but I don't feel an egg inside. She's not eating or drinking on her own. It's ivermectin paste. Ivermectin only.

Also I'm not sure about her crap. She seems to have a hard lump in that area common however I'm not sure that it's a crap that I'm feeling. It may just be her backbone or something. It's very very hard and she doesn't seem to mind me squeezing it and massaging it. She doesn't feel bloated at all and she definitely doesn't have any lice or mites. She had scaly legs mites and I've treated them a couple times along with the rest of the flock. All her scales are off for the most part now. She's growing new ones.

The white urates likely means she's dehydrated, I would continue to tube fluids into her.
Possible she may be having some reproductive problems as well.
If the Ivermectin is all you have, then I would use it and see how it goes.

I assume you mean her crop instead of "crap". If it's not emptying overnight, then I would address that as well. Do keep in mind that crop symptoms are often the result of an underlying condition - reproductive disorders, infection and sometimes worms and/coccidiosis. https://www.backyardchickens.com/ar...w-to-know-which-one-youre-dealing-with.73607/
