i have some hens that have a bare bottom and i am wondering if it could be mites. if so how would i know. i keep my coop clean.
but i am perplexed by this problem. i wormed them in feduary. but they have this sore red bottom and it looks like red dots sometimes not always. more like a chap bottom, i feel awful. i thought some one was eating feathers but i have increassed the protien, given yougurt once a week. i have feathers found on the ground that no one brothers with.
if i do have mites what is the best thing to do ?
how do i get it?
and how do i keep this from happening agian?
