I found one of my baby chicks dead this morning. There were red and grey mites all over the coop and run.
I've removed all the bedding, sprayed and scrubbed down the roosts and nest box, then covered the coop, roosts and nest boxes with a bleach-type spray. I've replaced the bedding and mixed some mite powder into it.
They seem to be all gone for now.
I'm super upset and stressed from the whole day and I need advice about how to make sure they don't hurt my hens and my remaining 2 chicks.
