    Ivermectin Paste to treat lice?

    Thank you for your reply! When you say apply at night, do I need to spray under their wings and such?

    Ivermectin Paste to treat lice?

    After bathing one of my girls this morning I found some lice on her, she is not infested, but of course I'm terrified! I have a tube of horse dewormer on hand, can I use a small amount on all 80ish chickens to treat for lice? Or do I need to get liquid? Thank you for any advice, this is a first...

    Noticed something interesting today, not just extra toes, but only on one foot

    Such a sad day

    She was out of her little mind with worry about her babies, so I pulled some eggs from the incubator for her and she settled right in to mommy mode. The world could learn so much from these amazing little ladies!

    That is a very kind offer, and I thank you so much! First thing is to build a safe and big coop. Hopefully their offspring will hatch. Fingers crossed!

    Such a sad day

    Thank you. Unfortunately the heat lamp issue was due to it being in a brooder box inside of the coop. If I had a guess, I'd say that one of the Easter egger teenagers must have jumped in the box and knocked the light down. I also lost my most special girl last week to a hawk, and built another...

    Such a sad day

    Lost 6 layers, and 9 babies early this morning after the heat lamp had fallen and caught fire. I feel so stupid. I should have known better, I should have planned better. They weren't just chickens, they were my happy place. Thankfully my silkies all made it (they were in a pen beside of the...

    Tumor?

    Thankfully all is well. I guess it was her crop. Never in my life have I seen something like that!

    Tumor?

    Thank you so much! I've brought her in for the night just to keep an eye on her

    Tumor?

    This is what I am thinking also, I am going to give a warm bath and I gave some olive oil. I'm not sure how exactly to massage it, I don't want to hurt her.
