Help with worms & how to treat

[Sueby]

Good morning. I saw some worms this am & need to treat, I assume roundworms. Problem is, I won't be around at night to catch birds (my Dad recently died & I have to stay with my Mom at her house as she can't care for herself).

I have Ivermectin pour on & I have goat Safeguard. I had read earlier that @casportpony said a long time ago there was the possibility of mixing the goat wormer in with water & making a mash for them with it. Is that still a viable option? I don't mind if it takes longer to work or withdraw, it's what I have & I don't have the ability to catch each bird at night for the time being, but I can mix up water or make a mash each day.

If it's possible I'd need to know the dosage & the length of time. I have 9 birds & have estimated an average of 6lbs. & I really stink at math after that!

Can anyone help? Or does anyone have a better idea? TIA.

Roundworms, correct?

I have goat Safeguard.

Those are roundworms.

I'd use the Safeguard. Dose each bird at 0.23ml per pound of weight given orally once, then repeat in 10 days. This dose and time period will treat roundworms only.

Thank you for the confirmation/information.

I did find the thread I was looking for on making it into a mash as I'm not around to direct dose.
