What kind of worms are these?

[5770amber]

Yes very green and lots of it. I loved it but now I'm paranoid it's filled with tapeworm infested insects

It probably is filled with insects, but not every one of them has swallowed a tape worm egg. Take a deep breath a enjoy life!

How long will they have runny poo for? I'm guessing it's from the wormer.
On a good note their comb and waddles (I think that's what they are called

) are now bright red. They look so beautiful!

Here they are when we first got them. Still in the cage on the back of the truck. They are pale looking here.

There are live worms in the poop yet

I thought they would be dead?

Do you have a picture of the worms in the poop ?

Yes I posted them at the beginning of the thread. Dawg said tapeworm and gave me instructions we followed. I thought they would be dead if we seen any since using valbazen but they are very much alive.

Go ahead and buy Zimectrin Gold equine paste wormer. Give all your chickens a "pea" sized amount orally. Redose in 10 days. You can put it on a small piece of bread to give individually to each chicken. Be careful, they'll try to steal the treated bread from each other, then you'll never know which ones got dosed or overdosed. Your feed store should carry the z-gold, it'll be in the horse section.

The worms were whiter in color than before but I think they looked the same.
