Extreme Veteran Posts: 371	When do you start worming your foals? How often? With what? I have a 6 week old filly and she is my first baby so I am not sure on when to start.

Expert Posts: 2013 Location: Piedmont, OK	I generally wait till 3 or 4 months old. The broodmare is wormed and vaccinated a month before foaling, plus all of my horses are on Animal Element Detox which has diatemacous earth in it.
