Skinny Chickens! HELP!

Get something that will do some good, like Valbazen, I consider that one of the best, liquid Safeguard for goats is a good one too. Dose them all and then repeat it in 10 days to clear out anything that hatched in the meantime since the meds don't kill worms in egg or cyst form. The feedstore people may try to sell you Wazine but that is only going to get the roundworms and there's a lot more your chickens can pick up besides that. You might consider deworming them on a regular schedule, once or twice a year depending on the climate where you live.

i live in britain, so more or less?

Oh I was just looking at older posts and noticed your question. I think there is more of a need for worming in hot wet climates or if the chickens forage in a lot of mud. If you find a lot of dead worms in their droppings after worming them you may decide to worm on a regular basis like once a year and see how that goes.
