I just bought 4 new hens from a lady and I brought them home and they have mites. I always keep my new chickens separate from my flock for about a week to make sure they don't have anything that could be passed on to my chickens. I done this with these and after about to days I realized there was something wrong and it was mites. So my question is is there anything that I can get to treat for this that is organic? I have never had this problem before help please. |

something my grandpa always did for lice/mites was, pour woodash in their dusting spots, they dust themselves with the ash and it kills the mites/lice...

If you sprinkle Diatomaceous earth in the area where they are kept it should get rid of them.
