Eye mites

[louiseschwieker]

I've been putting the microcyn eye gel on her eyes only

Ah, I see.
Have you ever used saline before? It might help.

 

[louiseschwieker]

I've used artificial eye drops. If have to find the saline when I get home. I'm in class right now

If i did give her too much ivermectin, what should I do?

I dont think you gave her too much. This past summer I accidently dosed the same 10 week chick old twice (I had four that were almost identical) I suffered from anxiety for a couple of days but he wasn't hurt in the least.
You could try giving her Poultry Cell in her water. I had a horrible time with lice and my hens were looking pale. While treating the lice I gave Poultry Cell and it really perked them up. It has iron & b12. She may need that extra iron if she lost very much blood from the lice or mites.

Thank you!

Thank you!

I was voted "WORLD'S GREATEST WORRIER" by my kids! Lol

 

[louiseschwieker]

My whole family voted me for that too

Ivermectin pour-on dosage is 1mg per kg (each 2.2 pounds) which equals 0.2 ml per pound (if you can use a 1 ml syringe it is easier and more accurate than drops.)

Looks like I made an error in post 39. It should read 0.2 ml per kg (each 2.2 pounds.)
