[CHICKENS-101] Re: lice question

 

Thanks Theresa,
I won't use the worminator now, but perhaps in the future if I suspect they need a wormer! And I'll be sure to check for lice first!! :)
Thanks -- I'll try to cut off those feathers....
I don't have a poultry spray (they don't sell that in my feed store), just the powder.... but I did use the Poultry Protector spray in the coop and will read that label and see if I can use that on the hens as well if I have to. It is more gentle than the permethrin perhaps...

Or you'll ou need to spray your hens with poultry spray, clean out the coop again, spray the coop down well with poultry spray all over, inside and outside around the coop. Then you go onto a schedule of spraying so they cannot return. I would not use the worminator again.
