Hi there.
When are my chicks old enough to dunk them in water with shampoo for mites?
Thanks in advance.

i see, thank you.Chicks chill quite easily. If mites are a significant problem, I would use a miticide powder sparingly.
i see, thank you.
just another question please. is it normal that the hen ignores her chicks after only three weeks?
****ing hell!!!yes, it can happen. Typically occurs between 4-6 weeks, with some happening early, like yours or much later. Our momma hen that raised several batches was always around 5.5-6 weeks post hatch when she was done with raising chicks.
more the later.Do your chicks have mites?or do you think this has to be done as a preventative measure?
