Well there you go. FWIW, I think one should use a proper wormer on all animals, but they're your animals, not mine.

Good luck!

Thanks! We found a natural wormer. We are sprinkling DE all over the coop every week. It is helping.

DE will not prevent nor treat worms. It is useless when wet until it dries. Chicken innards are wet.

The DE is for Lice and Mites.

It doesn't work for them either, I know, I tried, lol. IMO, waste of money.
