Crowing
So I noticed a very small roundworm in one of my leghorns poo and decided to worm my whole flock. We’re using liquid goat dewormer (safeguard), and decided the easiest way to do our flock of 23 by mixing the safeguard with water and mixing it into their food; we give them this in the evening (I take their free choice food away at 2pm so they are hungry and eat the medicated food). I have noticed them pooping out the worms when I check in the mornings so I’m assuming it’s working?
Has anyone else used this method successfully? We just simply cannot dose each bird individually for 5 days in a row and I don’t understand how people with large flocks do this and I’m wondering why I’ve never heard of this method after 4 years on BYC?Everyone seemed fine and I had no indication that anyone had worms until the one pooped it out right in front of me.
