RE: [CHICKENS-101] Re: Scaly leg mites

 

I have four chickens, but only one is showing signs. Should I quarantine her
and only treat her. The others have no signs at all and are laying eggs.
She has the scales sticking out and has stopped laying.

Ivermectin 1% injectable but given orally.

1ml per quart of water (stir vigorously) and use as the only water source
for two days.

Repeat in 7-10 days to kill any eggs that may have hatched.

Ivermectin kills internal as well as external parasites.

Best of luck ;)
