What would you recommend as a good allround wormer,or do you need to use 1-2-3 different treatments for different worms.

moxydecon---------either use as directed or 0.2ml straight down its neck do all birds at the same time .you must clean out next day and see if you find anything.treat again within 14 days then thereafter have your dropings tested.

i see what you mean but a couple of doses a year should tidy up a low population rather than letting it get bad or paying for a droppings test...same for cocci/canker. JMO

black treacle ( mollasses ) seems to work for me natural but probably too cheap , should stick a pigeon on and coin it in :emoticon-0164-cash: :emoticon-0164-cash: :emoticon-0164-cash: as for hurting yes if not treated and clear then you have worms with resistance to the drug your using

Moxidectin is definately the best wormer you can use. The one thing to be careful about is that you need to test the droppings again after a week. It will kill all the round worms and their eggs without doubt but hair worm is a differant matter. I have known hair worm to survive 2 treatments and only disappeared after the 3rd treatment. The last thing you want is the survivers breeding another generation because that is how these pests can build up an immunity to our drugs.
