I was concerned about giving garlic to the chickens, as I thought the flavor would come out in the eggs. I have plenty of minced garlic, so will add that to the chicken's feed. I did not understand when you said you 'DE' your chickens food in between. What does that mean? (Sorry!) Did you just give them the garlic and cayenne one feeding time, then again in a couple of weeks? Wow! These are all great suggestions! One of the 'experts' my vet is checking with, said to spray ivermec on each of their feet! (I told her that was a total of 108 feet including the guineas, but I would sure do it if need be!) One expert said not to use the eggs for 5 weeks after using ivermec, another says there should be no problem. The vet is as frustrated as I am, as this is what I ran into. One article even said not to feed them any treats, such as scratch or fruits or veggies! Others said these are all fine. ARG! You find yourself tearing your hair out, wondering what is the correct advice! However, since cayenne and garlic are natural, I sure don't see a reason not to do that! Thanks!
