The treatment of chickens to control intestinal parasites can benefit the grower by decreasing parasite levels in heavily infected birds. This will result in a decrease in the build-up of parasite eggs in the environment. Specific worm infections require specific medications. A determination of which worms are affecting your chickens should be made by your veterinarian prior to treatment. Proper use of medication in combination with sound management and sanitation practices should limit production losses from intestinal worms.
In this list will be some of the types of wormer's that can be used.((((warning)))) please check the label for dosage on your product before use. dont go by what you see here double check the product thats being used for proper dosage. and thanks to Robin for helping me gather the list.

Piperazine Wormer Dosage
The 17% Piperazine requires 1 Tablespoon per gallon of water for one day and may be repeated in 10 days.
The 34% Piperazine requires 1 1/2 Teaspoons per gallon of water for one day and may be repeated in 10 days.
If there was a real bad infestation of round worms the Piperazine could be given for 3 to 4 days straight.
The age of the bird has nothing to do with the dosage. The dosage is based on water consumption. Small birds will drink less water than a large bird and thus will receive less of the wormer as an overall dose.
Keep em Healthy,

Withdrawal Times
Presently there are NO WORMERS OR MEDICATIONS OTHER THAN AMPROL that can be given to chickens that are in egg production for human consumption and still eat the eggs. This is just a fact and there are no wormers except the Wazine Brand of Piperazine that have a label on them for Chickens in the first place. All wormers presently being used ( piperazine excepted ) are wormers that are used on other species such as hogs, and cattle.
Some people will tell you that it is two weeks or three weeks, this is just a persons opinion and not a scientific fact with any research data to back it up. I dont care what you hear or see written on the Internet or any other place, the fact is there are no established withdrawal times for these type products. If you choose to eat the eggs that is up to you.
Keep em Healthy,
