We have just about 100 chickens. They have lice. I have tried a lot of things in the past and it is hard to get a handle on.
How many doses of ivermectin do they need for lice? I am hoping just 1 will get rid of them and the eggs?!?!
If we do go this route, I will administer it in their waterer to make things a lot easier for us.
I know there is a lot of controversy over this, but I'm not looking to debate it - we do plan to try this.
UPDATE! I found a can of Permethrin spray.... I tried this instead! I will repeat again after 10 days and again once more to be safe.... some I only heavily sprayed their backs - I'm hoping this was enough...
