I go by Juliette de Bairacli Levy's advice in "Herbal Handbook for Farm and Stable" when treating my livestock,she has quite a few ways to deworm chickens in this book but the one I use the most is to make little pills of cayenne powder,made by mixing a little honey and water in the powder until it "pills up" and then give these to the chickens after a one day fast or you can give a course of garlic for ten days,chopped whole cloves.
She recommends to add to the diet chopped garlic and onion,bramble leaves,elder leaves,wormwood,cotton-lavendar,rue,hyssop,as available,all of which are worm expellent and give plenty of chopped parsley will help restore health to chickens recovering from the effects of worms or coccidiosis.
Julliete lived amongst the gypsy people throughout Europe and is a widlely respected natural healer,I would recommend the book mentioned above and her others if you're interested in her methods.
