I apologise if this question has already been answered. I have a hen raising two baby chicks. The chicks are 1.5 weeks old. Chicks and mother are fed medicated chick crumbs. Today I noticed thin white worms about 1cm long in the mother hen's poo. I have treated the hen with worming medication. Can/should I treat the chicks too as a preventative measure (have not seen any worms in their poo but the recommendation says to 'treat the whole flock')? Thanks for any advice. (I have no other chickens, just these)
