American serama thread!

Weak yes. she cant hold her head up and she haslice on her. ahes breathing barely and has her eyesclosed
**edit** she just passed..
I would get some sevins dust and treat the coop with it. You can get it at your local hardware store. I would also dust the birds liberally with it as well. Ensure they do not breath it in. The problem with most lice is they come out at dark and infest the birds at night then retreat at dawn to hid in the coop. They will literally suck the life out of the birds at night. I would do this as quickly as possible as all your other birds are at risk of a similar fate. Unfortunately, You only find out you have an issue after a problem arises. Another thing you can use is Diatomaceous earth used in the same way. It is non toxic and will not harm your birds at all and is even recommended to sprinkle on their food to rid them from internal parasites. This would be my first chice of treatment.

Idk what im goimg to do i dont have any of emilys eggs so i have no seramas now.. great
Absolutely can and will. They may not directly kill the birds but will weaken them to the point that they get sick and die due to disease. in extreme cases of infestation they can literally suck the life from them. I can send you some eggs to hopefully replace your birds.
 
Everyone is so silent here. My Serama from ladycat go into lockdown tomorrow!
