Chirping
So I adopted a 5 month old silkie today (feeling a bit like a chicken rescue now!)... I go to examine her and she is absolutely COVERED head to toe in mites. Her head is covered in crusty things, I'm assuming eggs? I dusted her with a permethrin poultry dust. What else do I do? Poor thing I'm sure she's miserable! I have her in a dog crate away from my other birds. I put a large flat dish in there with dirt and more poultry dust so she can dust bathe in it. Please help!! Ugh my skin is crawling just thinking about it!
