Natural Deworming

Natural Deworming on Pasture: How Credo Farms Keeps Animals Healthy Without Chemicals

At Credo Farms, we believe the healthiest food begins with the healthiest animals—raised with care, on clean pasture, and never forced to rely on chemical shortcuts. One of the key areas where this philosophy shines is in how we approach natural deworming for our pasture-raised livestock.

Why Natural Deworming?

Conventional dewormers can leave behind chemical residues in meat and eggs, disrupt gut health, and contribute to resistance. But nature provides better tools—herbs, rotational grazing, and intentional soil health—all of which help animals stay strong from the inside out.

How We Deworm Naturally at Credo Farms

  • Rotational Grazing: We move animals across fresh pasture, breaking parasite cycles and giving land time to heal.
  • Herbs & Plants: Our chickens and pigs are exposed to natural antiparasitics like garlic, pumpkin seeds, and diatomaceous earth.
  • Clean, Aerated Pasture: Manure isn’t a problem—it’s part of the system. But we manage it intentionally, never letting waste accumulate or spread illness.
  • Species Cooperation: Chickens scratch through cow and pig manure, naturally spreading and drying it out—keeping parasites at bay.

Benefits You Can Taste

When you bite into a Credo Farms whole chicken or crack one of our jumbo pasture-raised eggs, you’re tasting the difference that natural health practices make. Our animals aren’t just free from GMOs and soy—they’re also free from synthetic medications.

Natural Deworming Herbs We Trust

For those raising animals at home, or simply curious about our process, here are a few plants we use and recommend:

  • Garlic: A powerful antiparasitic, antiviral, and antibacterial
  • Diatomaceous Earth (Food Grade): Helps dry out internal parasites
  • Pumpkin Seeds: Traditionally used to help expel worms
  • Thyme & Oregano: Natural antimicrobial properties that support gut health

Clean Farming, Clean Products

Our commitment to chemical-free farming doesn’t stop at the pasture. It extends to everything we offer, from our chicken breast and whole birds to our farm-made essential oil soaps—which are crafted with the same philosophy of purity and sustainability.

Why It Matters

Natural deworming isn’t just about avoiding chemicals. It’s about respecting the design of nature. Healthy animals mean healthy food, and healthy food means a healthier you. That’s the Credo Farms way.
