I definitely think those are deplaning mites. My flock has had them badly for the last 5 years and nothing has been able to help them. I have taken them to vets and used ivermectin. They are all still alive and seem relatively happy as they free-range daily and are fed fermented scratch and peck feed. They are my babies but we’ve had to accept it after trying literally everything, which is sad. Can’t believe they are all still alive and well (ish).No bare patches of skin and no sores. Wish an expert on here could tell me so I know how to treat.I’ve done a post and an expert or 2 have weighed in and they haven’t said it’s depluming mites so maybe they Arnt sure. Yah it’s bad whatever it is.
