Here are a couple of mine today.

Old french fries and some old bananas.

I have the catalog and never noticed them when I was looking through it. I'll need to use what I have now before I purchase anything else.

Okay, thank you very much for taking the time to post them. I'll read them now.

Very nice!

They should be alright as long as no one gets trampled. It just becomes more of a problem I believe if they're say bantams and regular chicks or multiple ages.

Sounds like a plan to me...but make sure you only clip one wing not two. I was planning on letting mine free range. Just got them this morning and they are nosier than the Sumatras. They've been chirping away. I didn't know what the rooster on my avatar was either. Some told me he's a red...

I got some coming in today and they're chicks so I couldn't say. But I'd like to follow this thread.

Great post! I had a cat that ran away and now I'm stuck with a bag of cat food. Reading this makes me feel it's okay to give the chickens a little bit of it as a snack. I believe I'll check the sodium content before giving it to them though.

Okay, got it. We have a lot of wild birds too that we feed. The chickens are free range and eat dropped food from the feeders so that may be the cause. I'll go an Google the Permethrin to find out more about it. Thanks again for all your help. I may just get them beat or at very least...

I had one that looked like she had lost and eye or poked it on something. It got better after awhile though.

Well I cleaned out the coops today. Removed all the hay and pine shavings, even vacuumed out the nest boxes. Then dusted all of them and sprayed the coops with permethrin. I may spray the coops again tomorrow since I have nearly 1.5 gallons of the mix left. Anyone think I should dust some...

Some cabbage...

Thanks! I just read about your ordeal in another thread. I believe it was in 2009. Thanks for all the information. They had them once before, but this time I think it's worse. Already lost one chicken maybe due to the mites. I need to check on the weather for tomorrow so I can get this...

Let me look at some of his post then. Maybe search some older threads too.

Okay, thank you. Never tried using the Sevin spray before I'll need to get some and a sprayer.

Forgot to include the pic. Opted to leave out a disgusting pic. She's the one in the front.

The hen pictured in the front of this picture was walking with her tail feathers tucked under. So I picked her up and noticed she had a bad case of northern fowl mite infestation (per a book I bought) on her rear. It was actually quite disgusting the feathers were black and her skin looked...

I like the ideal of using flour.

Congrats and nice selection!
