WELL FOR THE CHICKENS
especially now with setting hens Perse:
I would use CLEAN the hens box and change litter after putting DE OR AGRCULTURAL LIME on the bottom under the litter place
also if she has leg mites you need to put olive oil (OR VETRX) on her legs
then with olive oil or vetrx on legs
you will have to do this several times in the next 6 weeks
as it takes that long for leg mites to be healed
as for the chicken coop here is the thing
sounds like you need to clean and delouse the chicken houses
PUTTING A SIZE ABLE AMONTOF DIATOACEOUS EARTH FOOD GRADE(DE)
on the floor of the coop then adding the litter
OR YOU CAN USE
Agricultural limestone from the lumber yard is good on floor also then bedding
give the chickens after cleaning and spraying the coop this
2 tbsp of ACV in a gallon of water
also provide some of wet mash feed for all chickens
Wet Mash Probiotic
1 qt of dry crumbles
1/4 cup of yoguart
1-1/2 qt of milk any kind
ADD 1/4 CUP OF DE TO THIS MIX IF YOU HAVE IT ALSO
mix good and feed each adult chicken 3 tbsp of wet mash probiotic
YOU CAN ADD 12 CUP APPLE SAUCE ON TOP OF WET MASH IN FEEDER SO THEY WILL EAT IT
DO NOT MAKE IT SLOOPY AS CHICKENS DO NOT LIKE IT TO STICK THEIR BEAK
For one Hen and Chicks
3 tbsp of dry chicken crumbles
3 tbsp of milk any kind
1 tbsp of yoguart
1 tbsp of apple sauce
mix good and feed hen and chicks twice a day
this will build up their systems as the mites and lice have
DAMAGED THEIR BODY HEALTH BADLY
*****I also would take a look at the chicken house and see if any of the building has split boards or knot holes as the MITES LIVE THERE and feed on the birds
thus you can PAINT the spots of the building WITH
1 qt of kerosene
1 qt of mineral oil
with paint brush apply to the roosts and knot holes and cracks in the boards
also clean the bedding out of the building and put DE OR AGRCULTURAL LIME on the floor before putting the bedding in coop
destroying the mites and eggs they have laid
