Hello and welcome to BYC! :frow Glad you joined.

If you are seeing tapeworm segments in one bird, the entire flock should be treated. You want to use Praziquantel. Zimectrin Gold and Equimax both contain it. Both can typically be found in farm stores in the horse section.

For it to really work effectively you need to withhold food for 24 hrs before dosing.

Administer a "pea" size amount of the Zimectrin Gold to each bird. The Equimax is more potent so you would use a little less of it if you select it instead. I would offer only water for the first hour after dosing to make sure it gets into their system before putting out feed.

This will need to be repeated in 10 days.
