Combination wormers
- Combination worms will consist of two or more wormers which are good to use when you horse drops weight drastically or if you haven’t dewromed them on a consistant basis. Deworming your animal when they out in the pasture should be done more often because while eating grass in the pasture they can injest insects and parasites and that can cause worms and cause drastic weight loss as well. Keep in mind that female worms can shed up to 100,000 eggs a day and that
