When can you copper or worm kids?

[Bluemax21]

I have two, two month old kids that have a reddish coat already): Can I boluse them yet? And their eyelids didn't look that red, can I worm them at 2 months? Thanks

Here's a schedule. Start cocci and worm control early!

You should be doing semi-regular dewormings and regular coccidia treatment for kids, because they do not have an immune system built up to help them hardly at all at that age. You can give copper as well, that will help with worm load. Here we do coccidia prevention every 3 weeks until 'well grown'. We prefer Baycox as it's a one time dose every 3 weeks, instead of 5 days in a row like the others.
