Let us know how it goes! This is my first time treating worms so it’s interesting to say the least!Oh great.... Something else to treat! Thank you!
What are you using to treat them??Let us know how it goes! This is my first time treating worms so it’s interesting to say the least!
I’m using these two things I picked up at the feed store. The first one is some pellets you mix into their food with more natural stuff like pumpkin, oregano, and garlic. The second one is sort of like these pills that you also mix into their food but it’s stronger and has a egg withdrawal period of 7-17 days.What ar enough using to treat them??

I just ordered Equimax and Valbazen. I was seeing mixed reviews saying Equimax has a lifetime egg withdrawal?Praziquantel is what is needed to treat tapeworms in chickens. It can be found in Equimax horse wormer, zimectrin Gold Horse Wormer, or Droncit tablets from a vet. Equimax dosage is 0.03 ml per pound of weight given orally, or 0.16 ml for a 5 pound chicken. I don’t have dosages for the others.
To help get rid of tapeworm eggs in your environment so chickens will not get exposed again, remove the intermediate hosts—snails and slugs, beetles, worms, flies, and grasshoppers—and the droppings around the coop and run.
