madchickenlady Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 I have two pekin girls and a new wooden coop. So far, so good . I haven't got red mite now, so am I likely to get it? Does it get brought in on new birds, or does it migrate randomly? I use diatom (sp?) when I clean out the coop, and add a bit to their dust bath Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
