I have also found that what may seem loud at your house can't even be heard at your neighbors house! I used to live in a suburban neighborhood and had roosters in my garage. I brought it up to my neighbor one day asking if it was bothersome and if it ever was I could move them. They said...

Weird... I really wish you all the best. I have never dealt with anything like this. I will keep an eye on this thread in case I ever need help with a similar issue. Hope she pulls through for you! You never know, it could be a Christmas miracle!

Treating her will just as likely kill her as the parasites themselves at this point. That parasite dust is tough stuff and if she is at a point that ants are all over her and she isn't even twitching...then I'm so sorry but it is just too late. For humane animal treatment sake, I would find...

No heat! If you start supplementing with heat the warm down feathers won't come in properly...

See how easy mother nature is! We tend to interfere too much You did great!

Option 1: Shoot to kill, bury the dog Option 2: Go out armed with a CAMERA and show it to animal control. Then when you set coyote traps and that little booger gets trapped in one and you dump him off at the pound and they have to PAY $$$$$ to get him out, I bet he stays in the pound! You...

I'm not thinking your EE's are mutts though... I have purebred buffs and wheatens and they look all kinds of ways! The last is a RIR or production red (very similar) You have quite a pretty flock there!

That is not blood! I'm sorry but I really have to jump in here... The only TRUE colored eggs are the blue/green and white. As in the egg is manufactured with that color through and through. The brown is sort of .... dyed on the way out. Like the wax spray you get when you run your car...
