I found mites crawling on some eggs and then myself yesterday when I went out to check viability of eggs one of my hens is sitting on. So I am going to clean out the coop again (just did this a week ago and liberally sprinkled DE in the coop prior to new bedding) and this time I'm heading out to pick up some Permethrin spray to treat coop AND the chickens.
First question, I noticed they're were various % of Permethrin concentrate, 10 and 13.3, which is best to use.
Second question, is it safe to use on the broody or more specifically is it safe for the developing chicks in ther eggs?
Last question. How likely is it my broody won't abandon the eggs of I have to move her and them to an entirely new place? This is her second time brooding sto she's not new to it.
