Hey everyone. Freaking out a bit here. I love my chickens and spend time with them every day, so I don’t know how I just noticed this. My silkie pullet has been having an eye infection this week, I’ve been treating it and today I noticed her face was looking kind of crusty so I brought her inside to clean her up a bit. When I was cleaning her, I noticed her feathers didn’t seem right, and looking closer they look like tiny EGGS. I have seen people deal with similar things near their chicken’s vent area, but not right by their face. She only has a couple of mites/lice (which is still a problem that I’m going to fix!), so it’s not like an infestation, but I am sick to my stomach with concern. My older chickens are mite/lice free.
I have diatomaceous earth and liquid permethrin. What should I do?!
