My thoughts on DE. I'm new to all this, so take this as you will.
We're going to use DE too. Mixing it in with their food. BUT, and this is a big but, we will do fecals and still be prepared to worm with a chemical wormer when necessary. I think DE may work, especially where worms are not a huge problem. But don't use it unless you're willing to keep up with fecals.
We just bought the Cydectin because we have two very wormy new goats that Ivermectin didn't seem to work on. I can't use DE for this situation. But I am curious to see how worm loads are with the DE down the road some.
