BLAH... I hate these things! I've never seen a flea on a chicken, but today I went out to take them off the nesting box (two are broody) and when I came inside I had a pinkish/yellowish translucent flea on my wrist. I'm only use to seeing the dark ones (from when we use to have a dog).
I'm hoping this was just a one off situation and not the beginning of an infestation. Not sure if I'm going to do anything about it, but I should probably start with some DE, etc. and go from there.
So are there any differences between fleas on chickens and those on dogs?
