Can you post a picture of the product you have?

I would not use that to worm my chickens unless I had a problem with tapeworms, one of the less common worms in chickens. For normal worming, use Valbazen 1/2 ml given orally and repeat in 10 days. SafeGuard Liquid Goat Wormer is also good.

Fenbendazole does get some types of tapeworms, given at the right dosage, and long enough. For other than Taneas, I think praziquantel is necessary though.
Haven't ever had to use it here, never had a real issue with tapes.

I've used fenbendazole for tapes in poultry and it was ineffective. Albendazole has lost its effectiveness in treating tapes in poultry. Praziquantel is the way to go.
