Need advice on worming chickens. What to use? Is routine worming recommended? How often? Thank you I appreciate all the advice I get on this site!
Hi, can you use Ivermectin 1.87% (dropped on the back) and is there an egg withdraw period? I use this this Ivermectin to worm horses.
Everyone has a different opinion on this issue. Some say don't de worm unless you see worms in stool & others worm a couple times a year. You can find lots of info in the learning center above. Your local feed store should carry de wormers like Wazine 17. Ivermectin is another popular dewormer. Some people also swear by pumkin seeds as a great way to deworm. Good luck![]()

Ivermectin has lost its effectiveness as a wormer due to its overuse as a miteacide in chickens. Roundworms are showing resistance to ivermectin and it wont kill cecal, capillary, nor tapeworms. It will still kill mites though.
