Fire ants

[pineirafarms]

Will fire ants kill my chickens? We just found an infestation in our coop and are suddenly losing chickens like crazy. We’ve explored several different possibilities for their deaths and I guess now we’re grasping at straws, but I noticed the dead chickens are completely covered in fire ants.

Yes, they can.
Move the chickens and treat the ants.
