In this discussion, we’ll explore whether anyone is practicing proactive deworming for their chickens and what products or methods they find most effective. Whether you’re a seasoned chicken keeper or just starting, your insights could help others in our quirky community navigate this cluck-tastic topic!
Does anyone practice preventative deworming? If yes what do you use?
Growing up with horses we dewormed every spring for all horses as a preventative measure. I'm wondering if this applies to chickens too.
My chickens partially free range and are definitely exposed to wild birds, bugs, etc.
