Question

[CherishHolland]

Can I worm while I am treating for cocci,or should I wait until the treatment course is over?

You should wait. Give them some time to recover from the cocci and the treatment before you worm. Most people do not begin worming until 8 or 9 months old.

I was wanting to worm these 4 because of the conditions the previous owner had them in I swear they were standing in at least 4-6 inches of poop. The lady had no clue what she was doing and all 4 are so underweight. When we arrived yesterday morning they were without food and water and at 11 A.M. it was knocking on 90degrees here, her excuse wasn't even worth my time listening to,my main concern were the chickens living in a 3x3 tractor. 4 chickens in a tiny space that are supposed to be 4 months old and all so underweight,it broke my heart seeing them that way She even said they were such cute babies,grrr that right there boils my blood. All animals are cute as babies but they grow up. That I did mention to her and she didn't have a response. So for the next few weeks my main project is getting these 4 healthy and on the path to gaining weight. Thank for answering my question though I do appreciate it.
