I first used Wazine. It is supposed to kill the adult worms, and then 2 weeks later I wormed them again with Ivermectin. The ivermectin kills off any eggs and larva that the wazine didn't kill. I was told that if the girls had worms really bad that using the just the Ivermectin could overwhelm their bodies, and possibly make the bird so ill that it could die. The down side to worming the girls, is that we couldn't eat their eggs for a month. I scrambled the eggs and fed them to the dogs and chickens so they didn't go to waste. It didn't seem to any adverse reactions to eating the eggs. I figured it could hurt dogs to get wormed at the same time. I have read somewhere that you can use Ivermectin to worm the dogs also. I hope so because the puppies thieved the extra tube of Ivermectin and chewed on it, and about half of the tube is missing. The puppies are still trying to steal anything they think belongs to me.
It's like having toddlers around.
Ron, I use Ivomec-(Ivermectin) Since I use Verm-X pellets to keep the worms down(I tend to forget to use them regularly), I don't usually use wazine first. But I heard if you see the worms, then you should. It can kill the chickens if you kill everything at once. I have the Ivomec here. Don't buy it. I have more than enough to do your flock and mine at least 20 times! It's a big bottle and you only use like 5 drops per bird. I use the pour on, because I don't know how to inject. Let me know and I will come over and we can worm your flock. As for the DE, I will let you know when I am going to Issaquah. Hopefully in the near future.
