    Feather problem

    If it is lice or mites wouldn't all of my hens have this issue? It's only on certain ones. I've been spraying the area with a permethrin water mix for a few weeks once a week. and I have observed them for quite some time over the last few weeks and notice no bullying.

    Lice and mites

    Okay! So I'm on my way to get the permethrin. I take 5 ml of it and mix it into 1 quart of water and spray my girls? Do the same with the coop/run?

    Lice and mites

    Kathy, I read that post and want to do this spray. I got confused when you started talking about all that math. Should I just get the spray from TSC and spray my birds and the coop and run? Thanks
