What is a good Wormer to use other than Wazine

[sega]

Looking for a wormer other than Wazine. What is something good to use. My local feed store owner tried to sell me Pig Wormer pellets. Could I use that or is it to strong for chickens?

I would choose Valbazen or Safeguard -- a cattle and a goat wormer, respectively. The pig pellets might be fine -- though I would look up the chemical name and see if i could find out a dose for chickens. it's a tricky business because Wazine is the only wormer officially approved for chickens, but it only kills roundworms, and chickens certainly can get others. here is just one thread on here about worming:
