I have 5 hens that about two years old and 5 that should start laying any day. A couple of the older birds have feathers missing on under their vent and they have not been laying eggs very well for a while now. I only get about one or two eggs a day fromt he five birds. They get a layer pellet as well as oyster shell and grit. I suspect they may have mites and/or lice. I have permetherin 1% pour on that I use on my cattle. Will this work for spraying the birds? I stood outside the pen and sprayed a little on them but found out that is not going to work. They are not real easy to catch but if this spray will work I will catch them and treat them with it. Also, should I treat the younger birds that show no signs?
Thanks,
Mike
