Proper Valbazen dosage?

[Fluffy Lambs]

I just got my Valbazen in the mail yesterday. I'm quite exited about it because I can also alternate between it and Cydectin every once and while with my sheep too. But anyway here are questions-
1. (This is probably a stupid question) can you give Cydectin to chickens?
2. The Valbazen I have is 11.36%, so how many cc's/ml per pound? (Chicken dosage)
3. How often should I de-worm them? They free range in a very large area where cows and horses also pass through sometimes.

Thank you so much to anybody that answers my questions!

Yes.

Give 0.08 ml per pound of body weight orally, repeat in 10 days.

3. How often should I de-worm them? They free range in a very large area where cows and horses also pass through sometimes.

Chicken worms are host specific which means they don't get worms from horses or cows.

Thank you! But I mean, should I do that once a month, every 2, 3 months, or do you worm them every 10 days? So 3 times a month? That doesn't really sound right though...?

Yes.

So should I alternate with Valbazen and Cydectin? If I should, how often? Thanks!

You should only de-worm when your flock has worms. Do you have a vet that can test the poo for you?
