    poultry mites or lice --something unseen crawling on us! HELP

    How long should it take for mites or lice to go after treating them? How can I tell the difference between lice and mites? Why is the DE food grade that I am using not getting results? Someone said it is because DE will not kill lice but I'm all out of ideas until I go for the frontline...

    My chickens are sick, please help!!!

    That is really sweet of you, thank you very much I will do. The problem is that the sickest bird is the first hatched, my autisitic son's pet, I will probably choose the next one in line to cull and continue to isolate the symtomatic sick ones :0(

    Thank you for your advice, I had heard that kerasine and liquid parafin mixed could help so sounds like the same type of thing if they ever re occur. I have already started asking about for an avian vet but can't find one yet. I'm tempted to take one to Sparsholt college to see if they can...
