Call duck hen with eye issue-HELP!

I want to treat her for the bugs. I dusted her, but it doesn't seem like it can get to the skin with all that down. I have frontline and Eprinex pour on that I have used on chickens, would either of those work on her?
I use Epernix pour on on all my fowl including my ducks and goose. I only do it it the middle of winter when swimming water is just about nil. If they have swimming water year round I'd say unless they were living in nasty conditions they wouldn't need to be treated. This will take care of External and internal parasites
 
I think I have chicken dose somewhere. Could you give me the dose for a call duck hen?
Thanks!
Call duck hen probably weighs what about 1lb or less? I have dosages for chickens but use it to get the dosage for my ducks like Lf chickens get 5 drops my goose gets 10 my Muscovy girls get 6 and my drakes 8 my bantam chickens get 3 drops my standard chickens get 4 if your call is around a pound then I'd say 3 drops. What i like about the Epernix is it is safe to continue to eat the eggs after using instead of having to toss then. If you think these dosages are not to your liking then maybe you can google it and find out. I have been using these dosages for almost 3 years and have never had a problem.

Sounds great Miss Lydia, thank you! I am so glad you included all of the doses because I have all of those animals too! I will go dose my flocks.

Okay now you need to address the eye issue, I believe along with treating for mites and other internal parasites I'd do something for her eye, terrimycim eye ointment or silver or even Vetericyn can be applied around the eyes Like Amiga said if she hasn't had water deep enough to wash her whole head she may have picked up an infection of fungus.
 
Well I have put neosporin on her eyes several times. And when I look closely there are little black dots in her bald spots around her eyes. Is this new feathers growing back in? I haven't seen her scratching her eyes or shaking her head anymore. She now has bath water and loves taking baths! Should I do anything else if it looks like she is recovering from the eye thing?
 
If those little blk dots aren't moving them I'd say they aren't mites. which is a good thing. Glad to hear she has swimming water, i bet she is one happy girl.
