    Is this a gosling?

    What are these?

    Whatever they are, they are carried by ideal poultry .They were packing peanuts that came with my duck order. My sister-in-law was guessing they were bantam mille fleurs, but they're the same size as similarly aged white leghorns. I was guessing cochins maybe?

    My sister's chickens are getting lethargic and have very pale combs. She's tried electrolytes band probiotics. Told her to look for mites. Said she saw red buggies. Sent her to pick up some DE. Any other possibilities? Can mites kill off chickens?
