Fantastic post and I will steal some ideas from it! Her daily regimen right now is: 400ui Vitamin E 25-50mcg selenium .25ml prednosone .5ml Poly Vi Sol .75ml nutri-drench We feed to mouth via syringe every day. She also eats some egg yolk, too. We saw improvements yesterday, and today was a...

OK… I’m very happy to see that somebody did this… We have a silky who has a really bad case. She can barely keep her head up, and we have to hold her neck up so she can eat. Sometimes she can snap out of it and she eats and drinks on her own, but this first week has been very rough. I...

Thanks! My vet recommended another vet who has more experience with this. Taking her tomorrow. Hoping maybe a shot will help.

Thanks. Yesterday she was able to walk a little bit and today she would just rather walk backwards and she can’t walk for words. She has moments that she can hold her head up and then it’s right back down. I have prednisone… How much should I give her as I know that is something commonly given...

Anything? When I put her on the cage or anywhere she starts walking backwards and her neck is turned around multiple times

Saw the typo earlier. Was using Siri. I mean how do you spray the mites around eyes lol.

We haven't BUT we see some nits under their beak

Thanks. So how do you tell the mites around their beaks and eyes? My wife and I picked up each chicken and sprayed around them and underneath the wings and their feet avoiding their face. Then we put a little bit on our fingertips and rub it on the top of their heads. Took a break because...

Thank you for all your help. Last question. So we went ahead and gave them a "bath" and we are cleaning their run and spraying it. We found that some of the big girls have it, too. If they go to an area where the mites still are, as they free range, but they have been treated, will they be...

Oh, dumb question: how often do I do this?

Thanks! We sprayed the little ones and will check the big girls tomorrow.

Thanks! What keeps them from getting poisoned should they peck at their feathers or each other?
