Silkie thread!

[subhanalah]

There are also a few posts on BYC worming chickens too that I will peruse.  Thank you very much!  I've used Ivermectin this past year and need to use something else as a change.  Safeguard sounds good but I can't get any input on how to use it.  Will have to research more as there are different kinds for cattle, goats, and dogs.

the horse paste and goat liquid are the same dosage.
I said up there that it's .5cc for 1kg (2.2lbs.) Maybe it got lost on another page

Hi,

I have had Silkies for about two years and just love them. These is my main rooster and one of his sons. My daughter trimmed his tail feathers when trimming some hens.

Syl ,So that's 1/4 cc directly in the beak then redose in 10 days. For bantams.

for a one pound chicken dealing with roundworms, yes.

The dosage is much higher for gape, but levamisole is reported to be more effective against gape. I'm sure @dawg53 wouldn't mind you PMing him.

I spoke too soon. She died last night so I put her under the tree at about 1:00 this morning. We tried everything we could, just wasn't destined to make it I guess. I hurt for my wife, she was supposed to pull through for her. She got really attached through all of it.
