I last wormed my girls in December with Valbazen due to tapeworms. Worked fine with all but one gal. They seem to not leave her. She went downhill. Dawg suggested I-Gold for her. Unfortunately she passed away last week. ( Couldn't get rid of her worms)

SO , today someone has worms in their poop again. I didn't see who it was. My question is, a few of my girls are moulting and is it safe to use the wormer during this time? I have read that it will stunt their feather growth.

Since most are moulting and not laying, would be a good time to give it to them.


Thank for your input.
 
I'm interested to know the answer to our question as I just wormed my hens and two of them are molting as well. I hadn't heard/read that worming while molting would stunt their feather growth, I hope this is not true!
