Tiny transparent parasite under chicken’s feather, smaller than a seasame. HELP EMERGENCY

Thank you! It’s really helpful.

If it is lice, those will need a second dose of the topical permethrin spray or dust in 10 days to get newly hatched lice before they can reproduce. Mites need retreatment in 7 days. It may require a third or more treatment if there are still lice present. Empty bedding, and treat the coop, nest boxes, and roosts/perches with permethrin spray, and then replace bedding with new. Here is a good link with pics of lice and eggs:

Thank you, I think you’re right.

Mix ash and sand if it’s Chicken Lice or Mites. We’ve done it before and it gets the entire coop okay. I think it may be chicken lice.
