Have been inside every night still but we let them out in the run by day.

Should they be dewormed? Dusted?

Anything as a preventative?


We don't have DE around here and I need to order some or try to get a local feed store to order some but in the meantime should I be doing anything??
 
No, not unless you know they have pests on them. Just keep an eye out for cocci since they are at the ripe age to get it from the soil--mucousy, hamburgery looking poop and hunched up like they're cold are the signs.
 
Yes, it is there. The oocycsts that cause it are in there and there are 9 types of coccidiosis. They just have to slowly develop immunity to it. If you live in a dry climate, it's less likely. Damp environments make it worse.

Hope they will be ok

Thanks for the info
