Has anyone ever thought about quitting this chicken thing?

I feel unable to care for them. I don't know what to do about the mites they have gotten. Help me.... please.

Hey Cat. Just getting started and no advice about chickens to offer. Just wanted to reach out. I understand how overwhelming it can feel when any of our animals gets sick. I’m very sure more experienced members here will give you excellent information

Where can I find it and how do I use it?

Amazon sells permethrin dust. That’s good for chickens, to dust them down. Permethrin spray is better for the coop.

Martins or Gordons permethrin 10 is sold in 8-16-32 ounce containers, in most feed stores and TSC. It is mixed with water according to the inside label for different animals, chickens, and the coop. Use a spray bottle 15 ml or 1/2 ounce per chicken or in a garden sprayer for the coop and nest boxes. Do not use if you raise bees. Permethrin garden dust is also found in feed stores in small shaker containers. They also sell ready to use spray in the horse section.
