There are many natural de-wormers. But, you need to be consistent (use every day for 2-3 weeks) when using this treatment. You can purchase apple cider vinegar. Put a tablespoon per gallon of water and use it as the main water source. You can also get diatamaceous earth aka DM food grade and mix it with their feed. And garlic helps too. Make sure your chicken is getting enough protein and calcium in their diet by making leftover fish, egg shells and/or meat scraps available in the cold weather when they cannot get a hold of insects.

Pumpkin seeds.
Cut And Paste
Pumpkin seeds contain an amino acid known as cucurbitin. Cucurbitin is inside the seed, and it paralyzes tapeworms and roundworms, and aids in eliminating them from the body. Some believe it takes very large quantities of pumpkin seeds to work effectively, and some do not believe it works at all,
Whether you believe in using pumpkin seeds as a dewormer for your chickens or not, one thing is for certain – they won’t hurt your chickens, and your chickens will probably love eating them! If you want to use the seeds as a dewormer, remember that the cucurbitin is inside the seed, and chickens can’t chew. You’ll want to make sure you chop the seeds a bit in a food processor, or blender, to expose the pulp of the seeds.
My chickens love a little pumpkin seed smoothie in the fall. I cut pumpkins in half, remove the seeds and put them in a food processor, along with a little buttermilk, milk, or plain yogurt, and whirl it all around until the seeds are a little chopped. Then I use the pumpkin halves as bowls, and pour a little of the smoothy in each of them.

What about Natural Alternatives?

With any herbal alternative, it is wise to conduct your own research which could involve getting a worm sample from your vet after treating your birds.

It is widely accepted in both human and animal products that there are natural or 'traditional' alternatives. If you take this view then freshly crushed Garlic and Apple Cider Vinegar (both can be given in water) are said to be beneficial to your birds and their intestinal health and may make the gut a less pleasant place for worms. If you read old poultry books, before wormers were available, a strong garlic solution was recommended to worm poultry.
Verm-X is well established as a 'herbal intestinal hygiene' product and has been around for a number of years now. The makers have received a number of awards for its efforts in producing natural products to support the welfare of animals. The regulations prevent the manufacturers from calling it a 'wormer', but it certainly seems to be gaining in popularity as a herbal product and ideal for those wishing to explore a natural route.

Nope. She is worrie about the eggs, no mater how many times I tell her hat you dot eat the eggs for awhile anyways. I'm thinking of giving my chickens away to someone who can take are of them correctly. It breaks my heart. I'd describe her as the second picture, maybe third.

Several of the broad spectrum wormers are the SAME wormers the doctors would prescribe to people with worms. I stopped worrying about the worming mediciine for the chickens when I learned it is the same stuff the doctor would prescribe to me if I ever got worms...

Specifically, Valbrazen is a wormer prescribed to people who get worms from eating pork that has not been cooked throughly.
