    Can I use Adams Flea & Tick on a chicken to help with lice?

    I have a quarentined chicken recovering from being picked on. She has healed good, but I noticed today she has lice. I have some DE ordered but I thought I read that someone used Adams flea & tick on theirs. Just wanted to give her some relief right away. Can I use the Adams on her?
