Best Answer

Most definatly, but you must use worm tablets prescribed by a vet, not with over the counter medication. Supermarket types may cause early onset of labour, and are usually not effective. Products from your vet will be suitable and it is very important to get the mother wormed so she can raise healthy babies.

Horse are commonly wormed with a commercial preparation available from your tack store. There are various brand names, Ivermectin is the one we use.

The wormer comes in a tube with adjustable doses graduated for the weight of the horse to be wormed.

It is not a good idea to worm a gestating goat. You may have to wait until after the goat is done nursing the kid.
