Thank you all for your input. dnenella... As for as the vanilla...we use about 2/3 vanilla & 1/3 water. A friend of mine puts baby oil in hers, I don't. Vanilla & water works good on humans, dogs & chickens. I have it in a spray bottle. Dogs get sprayed in the face every AM. Two of the Rotts...

I didn't know these horrible Buffalo gnats bothered horses, too. My friend has several horses & she hasn't said anything. She lives about 60 miles from me, maybe that's just enough distance, that she isn't bothered by them. The local extension office said DE** doesn't do much at all. Some...

Is ACV the same thing as Aureomycin ? What would be the best wormer for older hens plus 4 month old pullets ? When worming...should I throw away their eggs (if they lay any) after a certain amount of time ? Is there a miracle drug that de-worms them & would get rid of any mites or lice ...
