    Duration for reapplication of topical Ivermectin

    I'm seeing a lot of helpful information on Ivermectin dosages here, however, I'm a bit confused as to when I need to reapply it for northern red fowl mites and scaly leg mites. I'm using the pour on 5 mg strength. I keep seeing a second dosage after 7 days but I'm also seeing after 10 days. And...

    Quick Onset of Lameness

    Hello! Yesterday I noticed our welsh harlequin duck Ravioli was limping and hesitant to come into the pen from the pond for bedtime. They could still stand at that point but on one leg, hesitant to put pressure on their left leg. We inspected their leg and foot last night for bumbles, heat...

    7 week old chick with leg issues

    I have a group of 7 week old chicks that have recently moved outside (it’s really hot here so the temperatures are okay). I had some issues with splayed leg in the past but by this point they were all looking healthy. About a week ago we noticed that one chick had some leg issues. Unfortunately...

    Blue Scale Quail Chick With Leg Issue

    Hatched some Blue Scale Quail about a week ago and currently have 5 in the brooder. One of them had some leg issues starting out and we were hoping getting into the brooder with the sand would help, but it seemed worse today. Is there anything we can try or do to help him? He's still trying to...

    Duckling slipped tendon?

    Is this a slipped tendon? And is it at both the hock and the foot? This duckling has had problems with this leg from the start, and either I couldn't see this before or it's somehow been injured since then. Some kind of developmental defect happened because that back toe is completely missing...

    2 Week old chick with a bad hurt leg

    Hey everyone. So, I noticed my chicks hopping on one leg about a week in a half ago. Upon inspection I didn't notice any sores or cuts, just some swelling. I brought inside so she could be separated from the other chicks because they were trampling her. The following day it was even more swollen...

    Mystery injury

    I have a little barred rock rooster who is on the small side and is around over 3 months old now I think. He started limping one day and it seemed to come and go, then I noticed him making a pain noise while drinking water so I checked his crop and he seemed to have sour crop. I massaged his...

    Divet hole in leg/mites?

    I have been treating my rooster for leg mites by gently washing and covering with Vaseline when I noticed both legs have some yellow gold skin. But one leg definitely has a large divet. Has anyone seen this and know what to do for it? He does seem to be walking fine. Thanks!

    Pullets unable to walk, but are otherwise vigorous...

    I've had a pullet that hasn't been able to walk for the past week. I though this might've been a leg injury so I set her up in her own with some food and water. Today I found another pullet with the same symptoms. Laying to the side and unable to get up. I tried picking her up but she always...

    Scaly leg mites?

    Hello everyone, My 8 year old hen has pretty raised scales on her feet and legs. I'm suspecting it is scaly leg mites, but wanted others opinions if you agree with this assumption. Also, I have a new flock of 11 week old chicks near her, they are separated by chicken wire however so they're not...
