What is the powder?I just checked in his feathers and there's lice. I going to buy the powder for it but is it to late for him?
I dust my poop boards under the roost with Permethrin Powder in the summer and fall (Garden and Poultry dust), the rest of the year I dust the boards with DE (food-grade diatomacious earth - far cheaper to buy in a 50 pound sack that may last a decade than in a small container at a pet store). Twice a year I also drip about a half ml of Eprinex on their skin. It seems to work well and I have not had any more mite infestations. Thankfully they have never had lice, but with either pest, if one chicken has them, they likely all do, so it is best to treat everyone.What is the powder?
