Worms? *gross picture*

[AllenK RGV]

240 mg Niclosamid and 30 mg Oxibendazol per ml, would suggest you wikipedia the active ingredients there then go to the English page and see if they translate into something we know.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niclosamide , Oxibendazol doesn't even have a german page.

Best of luck to you I'm off to bond more with my flock before it gets cold here from a cold front!

It might work. The cat dose is 0.5 ml per kg, so a 2.5 kg hen would get 1.25 ml. Niclosamide treats tapeworms, Oxibendazole will treat other worms.

First of all let me say you guys are incredible! So much help, support and patience for my silly questions is crazy.
Apparently in Germany you have to jump through some hoops to deworm your chickens.
And like you said, cat dewormer is way too expensive.
So in addition to the Safeguard for goats from the US I ordered the Panacur Wormer from England, thank you @casportpony for the tip! Should arrive in 3-8 days.
I'm so thankful for all your help, guys! ❤

The dewormer finally came today. I hope this is the right one? @casportpony could you help me with the dosage?
I have examined the poop of all 5 chickens for the past 9 days since I saw the worms for the last time. Nothing! Should I even deworm them now? Is it possible that they fought the worms themselves?

I think I would treat all for roundworms. How do you feel about catching each one and giving an oral dose?

 

[Wolfgang B.]

So this is exactly the stuff I want? That's against roundworms?

Giving them an oral dose like the lady in this video?

I could do that, yes.

 

[Wolfgang B.]

Actually, we need to go with plan B. Can I separate them and feed them a with dewormer soaked slice of bread? They go crazy over bread and it might be easier for me that way.

 

[casportpony]

The wormer is what you need and it will treat large roundworms, Cecal worms, capillary worms, gizzard worms, gape worms.

It's said that it works best when given three days in a row, which is what I did with the last one of mine that pooped roundworms.

How much do your hens weigh?

Wow, it would take forever to treat like that. Let me find another method if you decide to treat orally.

How much do your hens weigh?

They all weigh between 3.7 and 3.8 pounds.
