I have read over post after post, and i am more confused than when I started..... I have lost a few birds the last couple weeks....You see I do not like to use medications or chemicals in my flock or in my garden...but I am beginning to think that it will be necessary.we will start with mites I have never seen any of these, I do clean out weekly the whole way down to bare wood then I dust with de, the hubby picked up a bag of something called poultry dust and thinks I should use that instead....now onto cocci, other than medicated started for the chicks, i have never treated...and I have never wormed but with watching the birds go after the worms after the plow goes go thru I think maybe I should start worming....any suggestions as to where to start would be appreciated......flock is about a year and a half old....free range....and remember I am allready confused so talk slowly. I am seeing what i think is prolapse...
