    Lice/Mite problem....

    I have posted many topics to help out my chicken that has been sick for 2 weeks or so. I gave her a warm bath today thinking that it might make her feel better as well as help incase she was egg bound and I just couldn't feel it. As I was patting her and keeping her comfy, I started pulling back...
