Worming treatments?

[fluffykitty12]

I'm pretty sure some of my girls have worms. I thought it was just due to getting old, but the abrupt stopping in egg production in my smaller coop, as well as how skinny and somewhat lethargic a few seem, points to worms.

Even if it isn't worms, I'm still like to de-worm as a preventative. Anybody have any tried/true products/dosages to treat worms quickly? I want my girls better!

I don't know if worms is your problem but when we worm we use Wazine, I have heard safeguard is good too, not sure the dosage for chickens. We mostly just feed pumpkin guts (seeds included) and garlic which are natural wormers for chickens when we have them available. Good luck with your girls.

I, personally, prefer to treat as needed based on evidence of which parasites are present based on fecal testing. The rise in resistance to treatments is in large part from the overuse or misuse of existing drugs so I'm very careful not to contribute to that.
