Hi all!
This afternoon I was giving one of my polish chickens some love… while looking her over I noticed little tiny reddish bugs crawling around under her tail feathers near her vent. I can only assume they are mites!
move read about various treatments and I am wondering what is the best and most effective? I have chickens of all ages/sizes. I’ve also got 2 broody hens (silkie & GL Wyandotte) sitting on eggs that should hatch around oct 9/10.
What is safe for them? Should I move them before lockdown period?
are the mites transferable to us humans?? Thanks!
