Tiny pullet illness update:

I wouldn't worry too much about it. As long as it's not bothering her, it seems normal to me.

Ok, thank you. I ordered diatomaceous earth just to be safe.

No problem.

She has a human multivitamin in her food, it includes b2 & b12. In her water i put a general chicken vitamin. I give her eggs and mushrooms for extra riboflavin.

Just use your chicken vitamin + 1/4tablet of B-Complex about 3 times a week. Cut out the human multi-vitamin.

I think what you are seeing is dry skin. If you are wanting to treat for lice or mites, use a Permethrin based poultry spray or dust instead of DE.
