So I have 3 mixed breed chickens about 7 months old and 2 that are 3 year olds. They seem skinny. They eat no problem and drink. I think I might have worms but any ideas how to treat?
 
I could call an ask the vet. Trying not to get a sample might be fun.
Thanks
 
watch your chicken and see if they passing anything that has worms or "string" in them. or they are yawning alot.

may i ask what you have been feeding them lately?

What are you feeding them? including treats
You mention they seem skinny - do you have weights on them - how does their body score stack up?
Are they laying eggs?
Any lice/mites?
Poop and chicken photos?
What breeds?

Getting a fecal float is always a good idea.
