    Lice on chickens treatment

    It doesn't have a concentration, just directions for spraying the coop and the birds. It is what our local feeds and needs store had and recommended. Here is the website, under details it has all the information! https://www.doktordoom.com/doktor-doom-lice-killer-for-poultry-plus.html

    Lice on chickens treatment

    I know this is an old post but we just bought Doktor Doom as we have a bird with lice. We sprayed their vent and under their wings with it and now we are paranoid about when they are preening. I know it says it dries in 10-15 minutes, but now we are questioning if it was too much. Any input is...

    Mites??

    Okay, thank you! And I just took a photo of her most recent bowel movement. I've only seen her slightly graze the lawn, have scrambled eggs with the amoxicillin and a few blueberries. I've never seen poo this color. Could this be from the mites or the antibiotics? I am assuming antibiotics...

    Mites??

    I needed to hear this. She's been so off and it's breaking my heart and we just want to help. We sprayed the coop and we use diatom on our wood shavings. We are going to check her vent to see if there is a build up of mites as well. So I should stop giving her the amoxicillin as well? We would...

    Mites??

    Yes, this was crawling and I had one on my arm after picking her up. Also what do you suggest for antibiotic ointment? I have Polysporin and Betadine but want to make sure I use the proper one! Thanks

    Possible Bumblefoot? Lavender orpinton acting strange :(

    Okay great, thank you. We picked up betaine this morning. Really hoping we can help her. She's lethargic and has a pale comb so going to fix up her feet today and keep administering amoxicillin. 🤞

    Possible Bumblefoot? Lavender orpinton acting strange :(

    Will do. It's our first time dealing with it. Does it look like she has it on both feet or just the one? I don't want to pick at her other foot if it isn't!

    Possible Bumblefoot? Lavender orpinton acting strange :(

    My husband and I have noticed that our Lavender Orpington seems a little slow lately. She's usually running and never gets super close to us but recently we've been able to be right in front of her and even touch her without her running. She's still eating and laying but earlier this week she...

    Sorry it isn't chicken wire. It is hardware cloth. Our entire coop is hardware wire surrounding the wooden coop

    Is there a way to get chicks to sleep in the coop?

    We have quite a bit of ventilation. The back doors open completely and are blocked by chicken wire, so it's like a screen door for them. And the coop door is open all day!
