    I use a few drops of ivermectin mixed with a tablespoon of vegetable oil or baby oil, paint their feet and legs with it using a small paint brush. Repeat if needed.

    Topic of the Week - Fly Strike

    I've had several cases of flystrike over the years. If you don't catch it early it can be fatal. If you see flies around the butt area chances are good that flystrike is happening.

    Thank you AmyL, Pyx, WVducks, Audy5000, Blooie, and everyone else that held an interest and offered awesome advise. I guess I really need to thank RubyNala. Incredible hatch rate and a record for my 13 years of silkie breeding. Ruby gets the Gold.
