I've read many many threads on deworming. I still have questions.
I ordered SafeGuard (fenbendazole - .23ml per pound) and 1ml syringes. I have a small kitchen scale to weigh my chicks. They will be 7 weeks old this weekend. Is that a good time for their first dose? And would you give them a 2nd dose in 2 weeks?
How many times a year should I do this? Twice a year? 3-4 times a year?
I do NOT want to find worms. I also used to have rabbits and dealt with bot flies before. I am traumatized. Lol! I read that regular deworming could help prevent that too. I'm grateful for your opinions.
