Yes. Raw pumpkin seeds (Cucurbita pepo) have been shown to immobilize and aid in the expulsion of intestinal worms and other parasites. At least one patent has been granted for the use of a pumpkin extract in an intestinal worm treatment. Alternative practitioners often suggest that people with intestinal parasites eat one ounce of pumpkin seeds a day while the problem lasts. Roasted and salted seeds are inappropriate for chickens and will do more harm than good- just hand over the guts from your Jack-o-Lantern and they'll ba-gawk in glee.
