Why do chickens shed intestinal lining?

I found a UK site that listed all the wormers and their colors, but can't find it now.

Regarding the Wazine... If possible I would return it and get some Valbazen or Safeguard instead, 'cause Wazine only treats roundworms.

Notice that most treat for roundworms (nematodes) include; large roundworms, cecal worms, capillary worms, hookworms etc...

Quote: Does that mean that Wazine will treat them, or does it only treat ascaridia species?

Okay, so I've found some conflicting info... drugs.com says that Wazine treats just large roundworms, but parasitepedia.net says this:

are effective against Heterakis worms, e.g. severalbenzimidazoles (albendazole, fenbendazole, flubendazole, mebendazole, oxfendazole, etc.), levamisole, as well as macrocyclic lactones (e.g. ivermectin). Some compounds with a narrower spectrum are also effective against these worms, e.g. piperazine derivatives and pyrantel.

Wazine 17 which is readily available and used in chickens, is piperazine sulfate if I'm not mistaken....specifically treats large roundworms only.

Thanks! I'll have Mr. Science explain it to mean when he gets home.

Mr. most things, lol... math, physics, computer science, electrical engineering. Also pretty good with chemistry and biology. One smart guy.

You know the math stuff I'm always posting? Well I work very hard to figure that out, and he just does it in his head!
