Hi All,
I have been researching worming and I am afraid to say that I am more confused than
anything. Quite possibly worming is the most confusing thing to me in regards to chicken care.
Here are my questions, if someone out there could help me that would be great.
Background on my flock: I have 14 hens and 1 roo. they are about 6 months old. They are just now
starting to lay. Do I need to worm them? If so when?
Here are a few of my questions about wazine and worming in general...
1. I have read that worms can be passed into the eggs that we eat from the chickens.
What would they look like if I cracked one open and would the heat of cooking be enough to
kill the parasite if not visible in the egg?
2. About wazine 17: How do I administer it? Do I put in the water for one day or do I use
it for several days to worm chickens?
3. Why do we need to throw out the eggs? How long does it take the wormer to kill
the worms in the chickens.?
If anyone can answer these questions so I can better understand worming that would be great.
Thanks for your time.
