reworming?

deetu · #1 07/05/12, 01:29 PM

Hi all,
I bought a couple babies and their tummies were round and their hips a little thin so I wormed them right away with Valbazin. The next morning, there were dead tapes. I was wondering if I should reworm to make sure I got everything and how long the wait is... it doesn't say on the bottle.
Would I need to worm with Cydectin also and how long a wait after the Valbazin?
I also don't remember how old the babies had to be to use the Cydectin. These look older... maybe about four/five months.
Thanks for any help

they look like alpine mixes... you know when they get the airplane ears

Worms/Wormers

The link above is what I usually follow when worming. Yes, I agree they are old enough for Cydectin.
Also give directions for the Valbazen & how many days to give it, etc.

I decided to call the company and they said 7 days.
I took a fecal to vet and it came back negative so I don't have to use Cydectin but will second does on the worms since the fecal came from only one goat and I may have missed some. There was alot of dead tapes...poor babies
thank you for you answers and for the site link.
