Certainly.

I give up. If you wish to spray your birds with unnecessarily high levels of teratogenic compounds, that’s your business. It‘s just unfortunate that you are recommending it to others. If .10 concentration will do, then .50 must be better. Personally, if I ever have a case of ..something that...

Many people use Pyrethrin and Pyrethrin derivatives indiscriminately because “they’re made from flowers,” not realizing the seriousness and potential toxicity. Bioaccumulation and or random exposure can have teratogenic effects.These chemicals also aren’t just something you use to solve a...

The bottle that was originally posted was at a higher concentration than necessary, and it wasn’t meant for dilution, it was in a ready to use spray bottle, just for clarification. No argument on the necessity for adequate remedies, and also, no other mention was made about attempting to limit...

Well, I only took through intermediate calculus, so, keep the differentials simple or I won’t get it..wink..

To cover the areas needed, do you spray 1/5th of the chicken? You still need to spray what needs to be sprayed, why not use a lower concentration if it’s the recommended amount?

I’m not arguing at all the effectiveness or use when needed of the pyrethrin derived compounds, just arguing for the minimal use and minimal effective dosage. Just because a concentration is tolerated by a horse and won’t kill the Chicken doesn’t mean that’s the best product for the chicken...

Really? And you’re the one who posted a spray for horses at five times the recommended concentration? For “Horse and Stable”? Yes..Chicken is on the label..but do you really want to hose down your poultry with five times the necessary chemicals? That’s what this all started with..a simple...

There is a tendency to solve problems with chemicals. There are underlying reasons birds get lice. Those issues should be addressed or at least identified as well, or all the remedies won’t help, or rather, you’ll be leaning on them frequently. Hygiene, proximity/contact/shared water or feed...

I’m happy to delete out of date information, but when I see a product that has five times the necessary chemical dosage which is primarily marketed for horses then it’s necessary to say this is not the ideal product for chickens. There was nothing “wrong” on any post I’ve ever made. Out of date...

https://www.cacklehatchery.com/how-do-chickens-get-lice/ They have a recommendation or at least a “plug” for this from Gail Damerow, author of many books on chickens and their health. As I understand it, potassium sorbate interferes with the bugs’ reproduction. It won’t “kill them dead”.. It...

Yes..this is the problem with finding older material..sorry..I deleted one full of old stuff..the reason I said the original post was a stronger concentration than necessary is that it’s in a ready to use spray bottle..not to be diluted, that was my only point. I’m sure it would work, but why...

Perhaps, but, this is from the manufacturer. I’m still researching, but, of the ones that do recommend using it, they say 10%.. edit from https://parasitipedia.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=3801&Itemid=4168 RECOMMENDED DOSE Large animals (Beef & Dairy Cattle, Horses, Sheep...

You can limit her light to 8 hours to discourage laying if you want..in cases of prolapse it’s recommended for healing, but applies for some other stuff too..

Nope..you’re trusted..I like to scan for recent studies about stuff too, I learned how with my own health, 6+ major sinus surgeries and three neck sets of hardware, I got plenty of practice..I’ll keep the aspirin info for files, see if I can get a vet to give me a scrip for meloxicam for the...

Here’s the study referenced as footnote 12 https://www.scitechnol.com/peer-review/differences-in-nsaid-toxicity-infour-avian-species-roJO.php?article_id=4810 Abstract Veterinary treatment of livestock with diclofenac, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), has caused catastrophic...

This was a 2005 study..right? Aspirin may be a better bet, but studies on poultry pain and NSAIDS are few, here’s a blurb conclusion of one study of aspirin vs diclofenac (yes..not ibuprofen, but ibuprofen is also a known kidney damager..) here’s a 2015-16 study...
