Parasites

[centrarchid]

I'll look and see if I can find yours.

Do worry about that. I will try to post future images so they are more searchable. I do occasionally have images of known things that might be of interest to some as a reference. Not parasites so much, but still likely of interest to some.

Just be sure to upload them to an album and name it first instead of just inserting it into a post.

The cecal worm turkey dose is 0.23 ml per pound of body weight orally and repeat in 10 days.

Thank you kindly!
Is there a dosage chart available anywhere for future reference?

we do have 3 bourbon red turkeys

Well, then, that's a problem. They carry the parasite that causes blackhead disease, which is really bad news for turkeys. I would treat them all with fenbendazole as the others are saying. I would throw out eggs for 10 days after administration.

If OP doesn't mind I'll download the image and save it/upload it with that exact name.

I don’t mind at all! I appreciate how helpful this group has been.
I’ll be sure and share any future images we run across with our flock

No chart, but maybe we could put something together.

Thanks! We may look at moving the turkeys to a different area. They were kind of a spur of the moment buy and the ladies at the farm store assured us they’d live happily with our chickens.
So, with the two doses, does that mean I throw out 20 days of eggs?

No chart, but maybe we could put something together.

that would be super helpful
