Hi, I found lice and lice sacs/nest on my hens, while googling "how do I get rid of lice sacs" I got distracted by a page saying brown spots on eggs are mites. Is that true? Because I've had brown spots (not poo) on eggs.
Also... I still haven't learned how to get those cement like lice sacs...
My main concern is rats, I have two dogs, they pretty much keep the raccoons away.
I have a coop that I put on plywood, now I want to build an extension/a run, how deep should I bury the chicken/hardware wire to keep the rats out?
Thank you, Karen
