  1. That's quite a job if you're by yourself and have 30 or 40 chickens. I'm relatively new to chickens but I went with Safeguard liquid put it on some treats and let him have at it

  2. Curious if you still use this? Trying to do as much research about owning poultry and have seen that your channel is the most realistic and not just sugar coated. Most say poultry ownership is perfect and just need to watch their feet, feed and look out for predators.

  3. I know this is an older video, but wanted to thank you. This video saved my flock back in 2015. Natural is always best, but you can't treat everything with "nuts and berries." All natural is best when it comes to prevention, but will use the best medication available for treatment. Over 20 yrs of trying everything, this has been the best way to go for my animals. Treated over 100 chickens using this method, and it worked like a charm. Unlike other wormers, Ivermectin will kill many parasite eggs so there's really no need to dose 10 days apart, IMO. If it doesn't work, you need to find out which parasite you're dealing with, and treat with the correct medication. Pumpkin seeds, DE, and garlic might prevent, but will NOT treat parasites/lice/mites. The one thing Ivermectin wont treat is coccidia, but the medication corid takes care of that. 😉 For my flock, I treat with Ivermectin in the fall, and corid in Spring unless I see there's a problem. So far, I haven't had to add an extra treatment (knock on wood.) I now have birds at the age of 5-6 who still lay almost every day, and have many chickens who are still healthy over the age of 10. I've seen too animals over the years die due to people refusing to use non natural treatments. It's ridiculous. If you love your animals, do whatever it takes to ease their suffering, even if that means occasionally jumping off the "natural" bandwagon.

  4. Wow finally someone who is giving great advice I always wonder if there was something like what we use for our dogs ! I’ll try this cuz I been dealing with this problem for a 8 months now I tried everything and those devils keep coming back ! And now my quail are full of them and one died already 🙁 is there a link you can provide to where to get them? I’m in California US I can’t find it on Amazon

  5. Hi Mark, wish you all a Merry Christmas. I have just got 3 hens for the first time ever and 1 or possibly 2 have watery poo. They are only 22 weeks old and 2 are laying. Being new to this I am not sure if internal or external parasites are the cause. Due to dust baths I can really see any clear sign of anything. The feathers at tail are a little messy on 2 hens and around their cloaca there are feathers with a little sign of poop. How do you tell what your dealing with or being new, do I just start my own regime of both internal and external parasite treatments plz. Thank you! Love your video's. From Victoria Aust. 🙂
