Will I still need to deworm them every so often after I feed them fermented?

Have you ever seen worms in your flock? Have you wormed them in the past and seen an immediate improvement in their laying or overall appearance? Or have you seen an expulsion of worms after worming them? There are varying opinions about worming. Some folks NEVER worm their birds, and will cull a bird that has an obvious worm load. Some folks only worm their birds if they actually see worms in the feces. Some folks keep their birds on a routine worming schedule. Other folks feed natural de-wormers to their flocks. For grins and giggles, do a thread search on Shaklee Basic H. Everybody has a different management style and comfort level regarding parasites. IMO, if it ain't broke, I'm not going to try to fix it. I raise my own eggs and meat so I don't have chemical garbage in it. Also, I'm not interested in a 2 week withdrawal period where I have to throw my eggs out after worming my gals.
Good idea. I did however just go out there again to see if they ate any. They hadn't, they did after talking to them. It was like most people said they seemed like they couldn't get enough. It's great!When I first started giving it, I'd sprinkle some dry feed on top just before setting it down for them. They'd try to pick off the dry crumbs and eventually just end up eating it all
