We had a Broody hen. She’s been there for about 4 weeks when I noticed she had little bugs - super tiny - crawling all over her. By then she already had hatched some chicks which we had brought inside and we checked and not surprisingly they had some too. We took her out of the coop and have her separated now but she’s full of them and now they’re even jumping on us. Even from 3 feet away they will jump and get on us. Here’s a picture of one of them. Where not sure what to do about them? Or what they are. Anyone have any idea?
