Do u guys recommend treating all new birdies for worms, mites/lice and coccidia and how often do u give to them??

When i get new birds i put them in a quarintine aviary for a month on week 2 i worm the new birds.I worm all my birds before and after the breeding season.

I place all new birds in a quarantine box with only food and water, around the 2week period they'll get a worm dose and that's all I do quarantine unless a bird shows signs of being sick. I worm on average around the 3 month period and don't do it during breeding season. I don't give regular dosing of any other medications only when birds are sick. There are many ways which you can go with this others will dose regularly while others don't.
