Worms? *gross picture*

[Wolfgang B.]

Good questions... Some people do repeat in 10 days, some do not, and I'm not sure what the correct answer is.

As for withdrawal, the product you are using is approved for laying hens in the UK with zero day withdrawal when really small doses are given for 6 days in a row. Dose is so small that it doesn't actually treat some types of worms. You're giving 30x that dose for three days, I give 50x for 3-5. I think most people in the US wait 14 day after last dose, but it's up to you.

Thank you for all the help and most of all the patience.

I'll tell you how it went in a couple of days.

You're welcome! Please do update us.

Instead of throwing the eggs away for weeks, can I feed them back to my chickens scrambled?

I think people say that feeding them back to them is a bad idea because you're actually feeding back small amounts of the medication and that could lead to resistance.

Thank you, I won't do it then.

Deworming day2:

Update: found worms in poop twice on October 20th and 25th. Never seen any more worms since then in now 22 days. We checked thoroughly and every day.
8 days ago we started to treat them with the horse dewormer for 3 days straight. 0.8 ml per chicken per day. All 5 chickens look and behave healthy.

To my questions: I'm wondering if I can skip the 2nd 3day treatment that I had planned in a couple of days.
And if I don't see worms in over 3 weeks is it save to say they don't have worms?

Some vets say to repeat, others don't.

I have treated my chickens for roundworms in the past, the worms I had found in the poop were very clearly roundworms. Today I found this in one chicken poop, and I wasn't sure if this is a parasite. It looks more like a small intestine. There was also some red tissue looking globs in it?

It's tissue. When was the last time this bird was de-wormed?

I gave them Wazine probably around 6 weeks ago.
