[prinellie]

I have safeguard to worm with. I’d this ok? If so, how much per chicken. Weight ranges from 4-6 # hens to probably 8-10# roosters

please also advise if I need to get something else

You can dose them at 0.23 mls/pound of weight.
For removing only roundworms, give this dose once to all then repeat in 10 days.
Egg withdrawal is 14 days after the second dose is given so 24 days total.

What type of SafeGuard? The pellets are not meant for chickens, but the liquid goat wormer or horse paste are good to use at the dosage of 0.25 (1/4 ml) ml per pound of weight orally for 5 consecutive days which treats most types of chicken worms (capillary or thread worms, cecal, roundworms, and gapewormss.) Giving it once and then repeating it in 10-14 days will treat roundworms only.
