Wow! I didn’t think of that. My husband put some out inside a plastic box where the mice go in and eat it. It’s inside his shop which is next door to the coop. It could have been caused by him eating a poisoned mouse. Thank you 🙏

Thank you!!! I don’t think his feed is moldy, but there are lice and mites. I did a BIG clean up yesterday and I’m treating each bird and the coop with permethrin spray today. Thank you for the accurate dosages as well. I am actually sitting in Tractor Supply parking lot so I can add the meds...
