Wormed with Pour On Ivermec... 1 week later hens are lethargic

[Kasey]

Also what is the best kind and way to give probiotics to then hens that aren't eating much? I was thinking of using a syringe with yogurt or buttermilk or rooster booster

You should look at the tube feeding link in my sig.

Ivermectin overdose can cause lethargy and anorexia . Having said that your birds have been through the wringer, so I would be giving supportive care as well
( probiotics ).

This is the dosing that I used for the ivermec. I'm really doubting there was an overdose but I suppose it could be possible.

How much did you use? Was it the .05% or 1%?

Would either or both of these work?

Kathy is the mathematician here, but 3 drops seems a lot.

I would use the one for poultry.

I would go with the poultry performance, from what I can see it has vits, electrolyte s and probiotics.
