On top of all the other fun im having with chickens right now
I have a sick silkie roo, so sick that i brought him in the house last nite. he has all the symtoms of MG, his eyes are horrible! IVe posted on the mg in another thread, so im dealing with that.
so im reading with him wrapped in a towel in my lap a half hour ago, AND BUGS START CRAWLING ON MY ARM!!!
they are lice or mites, cant figure it out at the moment, they are very small oval from what i can see and light brown almost white. Im putting my youngest on the bus and heading to my local TSC. im off to get sevin and maybe the adams stuff. im thinking i will put the sevin in a old sock and powder them all. Its too cold here in michigan for any bathing
My poor Roo, he is so sick, but i NEED get the bugs off of him. what is going to be the most gentle but effective way to de-bug him? there are so many different ways to approach this, i just dont know which way to go
I have 18 birds in a coop and runs and one very sick silkie in the house.
TIA
