    Chicken with lice

    yes I was concerned about that as well. The other spray also has some other ingredients I am not so sure of to put on birds. I decided to dust them with the pyrethrin dust and cleaned the coop well, what a fun Christmas project de-loucing birds :-) thank you for the info

    Chicken with lice

    These are the two I could find. My only other option is to call the vet and see what he recommends

    Chicken with lice

    You can get permethrin here but the one I found is sold as a house product not for livestock, I couldn’t find anything with permethrin for chickens themselves. I am not sure I will probably only use it in the coop since I don’t know if it’s able to be sprayed on the chickens. I also found a...

    Chicken with lice

    Thankyou all for the info ! Darn lice, I will look right away for a product at the feed store. Kiki, I am in Canada but I know I’ve seen permethrin products around before hopefully they have something that works. Thankyou

    Chicken with lice

    I don’t think it’s an emergency but I noticed one of my chickens looking hunched up and sleepy and on closer inspection I saw a few adult lice, like about 5 of them. I will be doing a diotomaceous earth treatment but generally speaking she seems a little unwell, not as alert and appears a bit...

    Chicken problems

    I have already added them. Currently they all seem ok. Chevy still wants to be out during the day though, I haven’t noticed her being pecked anymore

    Chicken problems

    Oh ok Thankyou for the info. Should have waited longer I suppose. I may try to re separate them then, and re integrate more slowly. I have been making sure she’s getting to the food and water.

    Chicken problems

    I just put them into a wire cage and set it inside the chicken pen for couple days. Didn’t have any issues at the time so I just let them out one day

    Chicken problems

    New birds added about 3 weeks ago. I have 2 original adult hens (no idea on age) and 2 new hens. in a pen that is next to theirs but not attached there are nine 7 week mixed gender chickens, they will eventually be added but just the pullets. I’ll have to get some pics later when I feed this...

    Chicken problems

    This is a complex one, I ended up adding 2 new hens to my flock. Introduced gradually but after a few days of all being together in the coop I noticed my black hen “Chevy” being attacked by the two new hens plus sometimes others joined in. I expected some fighting but they are being bullies and...
