Will it hurt to worm bred does with Cydectin?

I have a couple of does that look like they need a dose of Cydectin, but I don't want to cause them to abort. Should I wait? They are probably around 4-5 weeks bred.

This doe should have been wormed pre breeding . Have a fecla run ..this early on I hate to worm with anything but if comes down to the doe living you have no choice.

They were wormed pre-breeding, so I'm not sure what is going on, but I don't want to wait till it is too late too.

Run a fecal and see. You have to look at your management to see if something is wrong . Are they on pasture , hay ? Could you have missed this one ?

They are on pasture and hay. I know I didn't miss them both. The others seem to be fine. Maybe I'll just take an expectant approach.

Why do you think she needs to be wormed? My does this time of year don't have much trouble with worms.It may be something else what kind of symptoms are you seeing?

I am with do a fecal- Here it cost $15 and is well worth it. Then you know if cydectin will even hit the worms they have. Liz in NY
