We are working my deer on Saturday morning and my vet asked about using this wormer in the deer. Has anyone used it or have any thoughts. Thanks 
 
Problem with ivermic wormers is they will not get tape worms.  I like to use Pancur or Valbenzen this time of year.  Also if you don't get the ivermic one that will take care of liver flukes you miss a great time to take care of these parasites.  Pancur and Valbenzen will also get liver flukes.  If you have water and snails you more than likely have liver flukes.
 
Getting ready to seperate my does. Going to run them through the chute and vaccinate. Vet says worm them again. Is the Cydectin ok to use on the pregnant does?
 
I believe you are not to use Valbazen in the first 45 days of the pregnancy because it can cause abortion.  I worm with Valbazen any time after that in the does and have not had a problem.
