Im wondering if its mareks but they arent doing the split leg thing.. had over half of my mottled houdans die of mareks last year and it didnt look like these ones do
Would scaly leg mites kill the birds? I have had around 7 birds go sort of paralyzed and die a few days later, one of them had scaly leg mites. Should I just treat the ones that I can see have it, or all the birds? Also should i put vaseline on their legs?
Most of the layers have it, havent had a good look at the older chicks yet. The meat birds are in a different pen right beside the layers. I sell eggs from the layers and I also sell fertilized eggs for hatching.
How do I treat over 200 meat birds and layers for scaly leg mites? It would take forever to soak all of their feet in water and put vaseline on them, and I’m not sure if i can use ivermectin as these are meat birds ready to be butchered in a month or so and layers.
