I have some conflicting information on treating scaly leg mites in chickens. After consulting a vet, the most effective way to treat is to use the Ivermectin 1% injectable solution as a topical, dosed by weight and applied in a series of 3, every 2 weeks. My concern is the egg withdrawal time...
As much as we tried to prevent it, my chickens ate some dead Japanese beetles that kept falling from a tree treated with liquid Sevin. The Sevin was not wet on the beetles. We are getting fewer eggs every day. Is this related?
