A comment on a post of someone asking how to treat roundworm in their chickens.

As someone who worked in vet med, I am also very repulsed that their dogs frequently get roundworm…..if they’re not treating with dewormer, they likely have never cleared the infestation in those poor babies (or their family if they truly all are infected).
