Top Ten Worming and Wormer Misinformations - Graphic Pictures!

[Wyandottes7]

So what is a good, safe, effective dewormer? Ideally with minimal egg withdrawal.

The two best dewormers are Valbazen(albendazole) and Safeguard(fenbendazole) for goats. The withdrawal period for both Valbazen and Safeguard is 14 days.

Note that one can also use Safeguard liquid and paste for cows, Safeguard or Panacur paste for horses and Panacur liquid. Active ingredient you want is fenbendazole.

Can anyone spot the worm in this poop? If so, can they identify it?

Hey, would an smilingly abnormal amount of poop with tiny amounts of intestinal shed be a sign of intestinal worms? ( it's not blood, and its not an abnormal amount of poop, but a number have a tiny hint of that pinkish intestinal shed in them )

I've only ever used Ivermectin topically for mites with great success.
Is it a threadworm or pin worm?

Possibly, especially if you've never wormed. Capillary worms can cause sloughing of intestinal lining.
