I have a hen that I took to the vet about a month ago that we treated for worms. She was on an antibiotic and what I believe is the equivalent to safeguard for 5 days. She seemed great after treatment, so back into the coop she went! Now I’m noticing that she’s starting to act funny again, and I’ve heard that they sometimes need to be dewormed again after 10 days, but I didn’t do that because the vet never mentioned that it would be necessary! Do you think she’s sick again? And if so, do I need to start over - as in, do safeguard for 5 days, wait 10, and then do another 5 days? Also, should she be separated from the rest of the flock during any of that time?
TIA for your help!
